CADC has placed a deposit on the venue ADASS-2022 in Victoria. We are working with University of Toronto and University of Victoria to host this meeting. Due to long-lead times for conference venues the ADASS-2022
LoC is requesting details on possible IVOA Interop attached to ADASS-2022 (incuding possible executive session).
CVO will be pursuing 'CoreTrustSeal' certification within a cohort of Canadian data repositories that are moving through this process together. Expect CTS process to finish by end of summer 2021.

Report from the TCG
Interop planning underway - TCG met on April 20
- Interop is May 25-28 (Tu-Fri) - JE working schedule - session input request deadline for WG/IG was 4/23
- 2 workshops within the Interop - GWS/Theory - Science Platforms (4 sessions requested) & DM - DataModel Workshop (3 sessions requested)
- gather.town - Folks in Europe have used this social site for meeting up during workshops - Henrik volunteered to set it up for the Interop; we'll give it a try
- Steve Groom reminded the group that we had discussed in the past having an Intro session on the IVOA early in the Interop. Henrik volunteered to lead such an session - we suggested that Monday may be the right time for it prior to the start of the Interop on Tuesday. It may fit in the first day too -- we'll see how the schedule comes together.
- Bruno suggested we get back with the AstroPy/IVOA Interations and PyVO; Several groups have added Astroquery interfaces to their archives and have had a lot of traffice as a result; Let's discuss how PyVO can become a Coordinated package in Astropy; Bruno suggested we invite several of the AstroPy developers. Bruno agreed to lead the coordination of the session
