Report from the TCG

o The TCG met on Jan 25 and has a next mtg planned for Mar 8

o TCG passed “Vocabularies in the VO” and passed on to Exec; currently reviewing MIVOT as their highest priority - Model Instances in VOTables (MIVOT) defines a syntax to map VOTable data to any model serialized in VODML. The annotation operates as a bridge between the data and the model. Hope to pass at our next meeting

o Roadmap 2020B have been updated for all WGs; few IGs still TBD

o Initiated efforts toward the interop

• Initial program - https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/InterOpMay2023
• 2 plenary topics: DOIs in Open Science, Science Platforms
• TCG f2f mtg on Sunday - 9:30 - 15:30 with break for lunch
• Exec mtg on Sunday - 16:00-18:00
