This outlines the roadmap for development activities by the various IVOA working and interest groups between the May 2023 and Nov 2023 Interops.

   %TOC%

---++ Applications WG

---++ Data Access Layer WG

<b>Primary:</b><br />ADQL
   * 2.1 RFC - complete and get to REC
   * 2.2 - PEG, INTERVAL support, MOC support, Array support, string functions, OFFSET
Datalink 1.1
   * RFC open - complete and get to REC
DALI 1.2
   * PRec + RFC mid 2023
TAP 1.2
   * User managed persistent tables
   * Experiment with Open API spec for these changes
Conesearch 1.1
   * RESPONSEFORMAT, MAXREC
   * Allow services to reject unknown parameters
   * Modernize required UCDs (UCD 1.0-&gt; UCD 1+)
   * PRec by next interop
SIAP-2.0 -&gt; Data Access Protocol v1
   * Proceed with renaming, expansion of supported data product types
   * Miscellaneous changes
   * Moving to WD status
SODA 1.1
   * return extended metadata
   * New transformation types
   * Moving to WD status
<b>Secondary</b><br />LineTAP
   * Client and server implementations progressing
   * Raise PRec once implementations ready
ObjVisSAP
   * Examine renaming to avoid radio confusion
   * Restart effort to complete the standard and get to PRec
SSA
   * Issue errata for minor issues already noted in github
ADQL User defined functions
   * Can functions be reconciled between GAVO and OAJ?
ProvTAP
   * Continuing work towards mature WD status
---++ Data Model WG

---++ Grid and Web Services WG

---++ Registry WG

---++ Semantics WG

---++ Data Curation Preservation IG

---++ Education IG

---++ Knowledge Discovery IG

---++ Operations IG

---++ Radio IG
   * Pushing Radio data extension (inteferometry/visibility and single dish) to PR status by solving issues and pushing implementations
   * Update implementation review note with
       * revision of existing text
       * addition  of projects such as NRAO, GBT, SKA, IRAM, SpanifhVO, etc...  
   * work out the Pulsar/FRB radio data in the VO note
   * Continue work on integhrating radio services and software in plaforms (python notebooks and whatever) for finding and downloading radio data through the VO.


---++ Solar System IG
   * Continue development on Observation Facility Codes
   * Get some prototype planetary reference frames incorporated into the [[https://www.ivoa.net/rdf/refframe/2022-02-22/refframe.html][Reference Frames]] vocabulary
      * This tutorial explains how the Navigation and Ancillary Information Facility (NAIF) software defines (and uses) reference frames and coordinate systems: <a href="https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/naif/toolkit_docs/Tutorials/pdf/individual_docs/17_frames_and_coordinate_systems.pdf" target="_blank" title="NAIF Frames and Coordinate Systems Tutorial">NAIF Frames and Coordinate Systems Tutorial</a>
      * The list of IAU defined body-fixed frames is included in the NAIF software documentation on frames, as an appendix: <a href="https://naif.jpl.nasa.gov/pub/naif/toolkit_docs/C/req/frames.html#Appendix.%20%60%60Built%20in''%20PCK-Based%20IAU%20Body-Fixed%20Reference%20Frames" target="_blank">direct link to "frames.html" second appendix</a>
   * Ensure convergence of the EPN-TAP _dataproduct_type_ with the [[https://www.ivoa.net/rdf/product-type/2021-11-18/product-type.html][Data Product Type]] vocabulary.
   * Support PDS/SBN efforts to exercise EPN-TAP and planetary additions to related protocols by implementing IVOA services on small data sets from several different planetary disciplines.
