    • Support/encourage service operators to improve service compliance
    • Work with WGs on standards-related issues
  • Validation:
    • Ensure validators are available (IvoaValidatorsSummary)
    • Encourage use of validators:
      • on deployed services
      • during standard development
  • Communication:
    • Provide forum for discussion of operational issues
    • Host/invite "site reports"
    • Encourage feedback communication between ops services and data providers
Specific focus:
  • Work with DAL on standards issues:
    • ConeSearch: UCD1+
    • DALI: Sexagesimal markup standards
    • SSA: A couple of Errata suggested
  • Push for service metadata improvements:
    • VOUnits, UCDs
  • Operations in the cloud
  • Security in VO services
    • Encourage TAP validators developers to add checks for sql injection susceptibility
  • Authentication as an operational necessity
  • User agents used in VO services clients
