The VOEvent Working Group of the IVOA will meet at the IVOA Interop, Victoria, Canada. The first session is 15.00 Monday May 15, the second at 16.00 Thursday May 18.
For those of you who will be at the Victoria meeting, I am asking for discussion topics and for level of interest for various topics.
Are you interested in VOEvent? Which topic below interests you most? Would you like to join the exciting field of transient astronomy? Do you have an event stream or a robotic telescope? Do you have expertise in messaging protocols?
We need you help on the Event Vocabulary. If you have a favorite type of event that you want a standard name for, please check that the proposed draft vocabulary (VOEventVocabulary) can express its semantics. If not, please write to voevent at ivoa.net with your concern. |
