Dear colleagues,

As discussed during the Semantics session in Shanghai, Mireille and I
have been working on a new version (V2.0) of the UCD List Maintenance
Standard. The basis discussed in Shanghai is to take advantage of the
newly introduced IVOA Endorsed Note process (see
http://www.ivoa.net/documents/DocStd/20170517) to facilitate the updates
of the UCD vocabulary. It is proposed to deprecate the UCD list from
Recommendation to Endorsed Notes, which can be updated to the next
version by TCG agreement instead of going through the whole
standardisation process. The Shanghai session participants insisted on
the need that the updates are made as quickly as possible, and the new
process allows to do that while keeping a formal procedure and cross-WG
check. Please note that Endorsed Notes, like Recommendations, are
published in the ADS, which ensures their visibility.

I posted the draft UCD List Maintenance Note V2.0 implementing this new
process on the Semantics page, together with a version in track change
mode from the current V1.20, to initiate the discussion "in WG". The
documents are here:

Your comments are very welcome. Mireille and I would like to be able to
proceed as swiftly as possible, so we invite you to provide your
comments by 23 June so that we can deal with them before the Northern
hemisphere vacation period.

Cheers

Francoise
