Dear Semantics, Dear Registry, Dear DCP,

Apologies for this deluge (it's because we had a bit of a backlog),
but there is another Registry-related VEP: the addition of
date_role#ExportRequested, which comes in the context of the recent
BibVO note
(http://mail.ivoa.net/pipermail/datacp/2024-February/000186.html).

Here is its text:

  Vocabulary: https://www.ivoa.net/rdf/voresource/date_role/
  Author: Markus Demleitner <msdemlei at ari.uni-heidelberg.de>
  Date: 2024-02-15

  New Term: ExportRequested
  Action: Addition
  Label: Export Requested
  Description: The date the publisher has requested non-VO bibliographic
	  services to pick up and index the metadata of the resource as per
	  the BibVO note.
  Relationships:
  Used-in: ivo://org.gavo.dc/gaia/s3/pub (or try
	  select ivoid from rr.res_date where value_role='exportrequested'
	  on your favourite RegTAP service)

  Rationale:
	  Many resources in the VO Registry should not really be carried in
	  bibliographic services like the ADS; the proper way to credit them is
	  to cite the publications they accompany.  However, where resources do
	  not clearly belong to a (unique) publication, it may be a good idea to
	  encourage researchers to cite the VO resource itself, which means it
	  should be represented in bibliographic services.  Operators can
	  request that representation by obtaining a DOI for their VO resource
	  and setting a date with this role in the VO Registry.  See
	  https://ivoa.net/documents/Notes/BibVO/ for more information.

I'm a bit split as to where we ought to discuss this, but given its
presumably wider circulation and the origin of the vocabulary, I'd
suggest comments should be sent to registry at ivoa.net.

Thanks,

           Markus
