Dear Andy,

Thank you for your e-mail - I'm sorry that I have been so slow
responding. 

An IAU Colloquium related to Virtual Observatories is an 
excellent idea and by the proposed date we hope that many 
VOs will be in general use and will be making a real impact on 
the analysis of data.

We have started to make some real progress in bringing together
the solar and heliospheric VOs under the Division II working
group on International Data Access. We recently had a very
productive meeting in the US which brought together interested
parties in this area, including the five VO projects dedicated to
this community. 

One or more representatives of the Working Group would be happy 
to serve on the SOC to help organanize this event.

Best Regards

Bob
