NAVO:
- The validation service for VO data providers run by NAVO noted record high levels of compliance with VO standards. Of the 18,477 active services tested, 83.6% completely passed validation. This is up substantially, in part due to the response to reviews of VO data providers that were sent out by to each site by NAVO last summer. These reviews described and suggested fixes for all validation issues. Full compliance with the VO standards helps ensure that the VO services are truly interoperable.
- MAST and the HEASARC have begun a collaboration to define how the VO
DataLink protocol can be used to provide generic access to NASA archival data.
- NED's new image access service is now fully incorporated into the NAVO registry (and through that with the other VO registries).
