Session 3: Web Services

WGPS 6: Wed 29 Oct 08:30 - 10:00 B462

We will discuss whether GWS should defining versions of IVOA data representation standards (VOTable, STC) that work with SOAP toolkits? Should we be advocating a set of toolkits that we know to work? Should we be pressurizing for a particular approach to web services that does not require anything more that the specification of an XML document as being passed between the client and the service?

Session 4: Authorisation

WGPS 7: Wed 29 Oct 10:30 - 12:00 B462

We will discuss how the IVOA should tackle authorization - granting permission to someone to do something to a resource. Should we have project-level authorization services or is a service-level approach a better idea? What about IVOA user profiles and communities?
