Session requirements

[John Swinbank]

Dear all,

Given the overwhelming response (and the fact that I’ve been on vacation) we’ve not requested a TDIG session from Matthew. I guess we could still throw ourselves on his mercy if anybody desperately feels the need for such a session, but otherwise it looks as though we don’t have critical mass this time around. However, I heartily endorse the idea that those of us at ADASS (again, not me) could get together for a chat.

Without a session at the InterOp, we should use this mailing list to review progress on the main items arising from the last InterOp. In particular, we were bullish about the prospects for both VOEventRegExt and VTP, but there has been little to know discussion of either since. Matthew, could you please provide a RegExt update? Mike, your message of 25 May tells us

(plus it provides a summary of your thoughts). I don’t think that message has ever been forthcoming, though — did I miss it?

Cheers,

John
