Coordinate and publicize activities of individuals, institutions and groups interested in facilitating robust operations of distributed astronomy applications, particularly those based upon implementations of IVOA protocols.
---+++ Specific responsibilities
   1 Publicize existing forums and encourage new ones for monitoring services, notifications, discussions and questions regarding &ldquo;real-time&rdquo; operations of VO / distributed services.
   1 Promote discussion within the IVOA on standards and practices that would increase the reliability of VO implementations.
   1 Develop nominal implementation strategies for VO services as guides to best practice in the operational use of VO protocols.
   1 Periodically provide reports to the IVOA executive and WGs summarizing availability, quality and usage statistics for distributed services and VO protocols.
   1 During the IVOA standards review process, assess the validation capabilities that are now required as part of new standards.

---+++ [June 2015] Procedure for Removing Non-Responsive Services

VO-Paris has presented a <a href="http://wiki.ivoa.net/internal/IVOA/IvoaOps/Proposal-Registry-QA-v0.4.pdf" title="VO Paris Plan for cleaning registry">plan</a> for a process for removing non-responsive services from the Registry which was presented to the Exec and discussed in the Interest Group. A revised version will be provided.
---+++ [June 2015] Coordination of VO validation services

It was agreed that the three sites that are currently collecting validation statistics will try to coordinate their activities. The first step is to provide a standard set of identifiers for issues so that results from the validators can be compared. This will allow us to compare the validator results and 'validate' the validators.
