The Semantics WG hopes to get the UCD list 1.4 approved by the TCG early
in the semester; it has been ready content-wise for quite a while.  We
will then start work on the UCD list 1.5, for which some statistical
terms are already in the pipeline.

For !SimpleDALRegExt 1.3, we will try to get the
http://www.ivoa.net/rdf/refframe and
http://www.ivoa.net/rdf/product-type vocabularies into shape.  The first
is also necessary for Coords in DM, for the second we will take care it
will remain topical and useful for its original source in Obscore.

For !VODataService 1.2, we will accompany the acceptance process for the
http://www.ivoa.net/rdf/messenger vocabulary, working with the SSIG to
see if additional messengers from the are already required.

With Vocabulares 2.0 now passed, we will work with Registry to get the
note on adopting the UAT as an IVOA vocabulary endorsed and then produce
an Erratum to VOResource 1.1, explaining how to actually apply it in VO
resource records.

We hope to publish a first draft of a vocabulary of object types in
June.  This will reflect the current state of SIMBAD's work on
updating their object classes.

Somewhat more remote is a vocabulary of instruments and facilities
(where it is not unlikely that we will find that this goes beyond what
vocabularies should reasonably do).  If it is feasible, it would provide
interoperable identifiers for such entities (e.g., for the VOResource elements
and the respective fields in SSAP, SIAP, or Obscore), as well as
pointers to names and identifiers them in legacy lists.
