Sesto InterOp

[Steve Groom]

“Me too”, I’ll be at Sesto but unable to attend
Hotwired, so I’d be interested in a recap of that.

Also would be interested in an operations-oriented
discussion on event brokers,
services where projects working with events
can send-to or recv-from. Would like to get in
touch with attitudes and options on building/operating
such broker systems. The success of event networks clearly
relies on some institution(s) operating network(s) to
distribute events, a task somewhat independent of the
production or consumption of the event streams themselves.
Is this a well-solved problem or an infrastructure gap
in need of filling? Are interested projects expected to
develop&operate their own from scratch, or are there
existing services/implementations to tie into or
build upon? As something of an outsider
to the event community that would be helpful in
better understanding the lay of the land.

We have been working with the South Africans on various IAU issues, including a possible time domain symposium in 2017.  Perhaps others from the outside world might also tunnel through the VO potential barrier?  Maybe a session inviting such folks to present a summary of their activities and perceived needs in the time domain?
