It's talking about the HTN stuff as well, so there will be HTN  
authors. It's going to be a long, long, list. Although possibly not  
as long as the Science paper I ended up being 50th author on recently  
(and I was far from last as well)...

Sounds like a plan. We should possibly think about (at the 2.0  
stage?) actually publishing the VOEvent standard as a paper as well.  
It's all very well pointing towards an IVOA URL, but it's not as good  
as a paper in a journal is it? We should publish it...
