Discussion was revived again the spring and fall of 2011, and a similar conclusion was reached | |||||||
Other Extensions in DevelopmentAdditional extensions are expected to be driven by other Working Groups as part of the development of new protocols. At the moment, extensions are in development for the following protocols:
Creating Registry ExtensionsThe VOResource has been designed to allow new metadata to be defined as an extension on the core. The VOResource specification recommends how to create extension schemas. Additional information about extending the VOResource schema can be found on the VOResource page.Useful Links and Tools for Developers
