---+ Obscore 1.1 Erratum 4: Pin !VODataService citation for data_rights to !VODataService 1.1

Author: Markus Demleitner

Date last changed: 2023-10-10

Date accepted: 2023-11-10

---++ Rationale

The obscore standard has an optional field data_rights, which indicates
access modalities of the dataset described by an obscore row.  The
possible values were (notionally) taken from what the Registry had at
that point, the *rights* field in !VODataService's service-like types,
which also used to define the meaning of the allowed terms *public*,
*secure*, and *proprietary*.

Meanwhile, on the resource level (i.e., the Registry), this vocabulary
proved to be insufficient, which is why in !VODataService 1.2 rights is
now a free text.  Since obscore's citation "Plante et al, 2010" points
to the URI http://www.ivoa.net/Documents/latest/VODataService/, which,
if it existed, would currently yield version 1.2 of !VODataService, the
reference to the definitions of these terms is now at least
semi-dangling.  The erratum clarifies the situation.

---+ Erratum Content

In !ObsCore 1.1,

(1) replace the content of section B 4.4 with:

<blockquote>
    This parameter allows operators to state the availability of a
    dataset.  Possible values are: public, secure, or proprietary as
    defined in VODataService 1.1 (Plante et al. 2010), sect. 3.1.1.
</blockquote>

(2) In the References section, replace the reference starting with
«Plante, and al. “VODataService…» with:

<blockquote>
    Plante, R., Stébé, A., Benson, K., Dowler, P., Graham, M.,
    Greene, G., Harrison, P., Lemson, G., Linde, T. and Rixon, G.
    (2010), ‘VODataService: a VOResource Schema Extension for
    Describing Collections, Services Version 1.1’, IVOA
    Recommendation 02 December 2010, arXiv:1110.0516.
    http://doi.org/10.5479/ADS/bib/2010ivoa.spec.1202P
</blockquote>

---+ Impact Assessment

This change has no operational impact whatsoever.  It only serves to
make the text more accessible to implementors.
