      * Chenzhou suggested G20 virtual summit choice, i.e. 12PM UTC. for plenary session 
         * Time Zone calculator - https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/
      * Suggested ~2 hours each day - not more 
         * Decided to add Voting/Registered topics - 2.5 hours over 3 time slots to fit in 24 sessions
      * <span style="background-color: transparent;">Format discussion: 10 minute video or set of slides to start meeting, then rest of session open with discussion</span>

      * <span style="background-color: transparent;">In scheduling sessions be cognizant of the time zones and work to balance hours to be fair</span> 
         * <span style="background-color: transparent;">We tried - picked 3 time slots that sync'd with 8am in Victoria, Strasbourg, Sydney/Beijing</span>
      * <span style="background-color: transparent;"><span style="white-space:pre"> </span>An option was discussed -- Split a session into 2 sessions with an 8 hour split in time</span> 
         * <span style="background-color: transparent;">favors multiple time zones; need good notes to seed 2nd half of mtg where the discussion can be continued</span>
         * In the end we didn't go with this plan
      * <span style="background-color: transparent;">Another option to post the schedule and have attendees indicate whether they will attend</span> 
         * <span style="background-color: transparent;">Pick time of session based on attendees locations & a vote that they will attend - may not need double session</span>
         * <span style="background-color: transparent;">Big response to voting topics - added to detailed schedule</span>

   * [Semantics] Vocabularies in the VO Version 2 - MarkusDemleitner - 2020-04-21
   * [DAL/Registry/Apps] Declaration of complex interfaces (a.k.a. caproles, TAPRegExt 1.1, perhaps ComplexDALRegExt?) - MarkusDemleitner - 2020-04-21<span style="color: deepskyblue;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR"><span style="color: slateblue;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR"><span style="color: lightseagreen;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR">**POST Interop**</span></span></span>
   * [DAL] DataLink - Marco Molinaro - 2020-04-21
   * [DAL] ADQL - Marco Molinaro - 2020-04-21
   * [DAL] A Python based TAP Server at Caltech/IPAC-NExScI - Bruce Berriman - 2020-04-21
   * [DAL] - Working session to resolve how to implement the MAST Tesscut service as a standards-compliant SODA service. -- IVOA.TomDonaldson - 2020-04-22 <span style="color: lightseagreen;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR"> <span style="color: steelblue;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR"><span style="color: mediumseagreen;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR">**POST Interop**</span></span></span><span style="color: steelblue;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR"><span style="color: mediumseagreen;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR"> </span></span>
   * [Apps] - Review and discussion of VOTable status (as a document in github with a set of issues). -- IVOA.TomDonaldson - 2020-04-22 %AQUA%<span style="color: slateblue;" class="WYSIWYG_COLOR">** POST IVOA **</span>%ENDCOLOR%
   * [Apps] - Working session to set up automatic builds for VOTable. Alternatively a presentation/tutorial from those who have done that with other documents. -- IVOA.TomDonaldson - 2020-04-22
   * [Apps] - Working session to learn (following existing documentation, and updating where necessary) the lifecycle of making a change to the VOTable document, actually making the change in the repository. It seems important that we all know the recommended path through the tools and processes. -- IVOA.TomDonaldson - 2020-04-22 
      * Based on recent Slack discussions (#github-help channel), maybe it would be better to have a session where we do a hack to create a __succinct__ document of the recommended workflow with emphasis on the gory git details. Ideally an outline or draft could be circulated ahead of time, so that people can try things out and have something at which to throw tomatoes.
   * [Apps] - Discussion on how best to maintain the applications page (http://www.ivoa.net/astronomers/applications.html). This is a similar maintenance problem to other externally-focused resources referred to by http://www.ivoa.net/astronomers/using_the_vo.html.
   * [GWS] - Authorization protocol (GMS): discussion on the GMS protocol and its RFC trasition
   * [GWS] - Discussion on Single sign on: towards a new standard able to allow apps and services to access easely private data.
   * [GWS] - Discussion on Science Platforms: what can IVAO provide towards the "standarization" of the science platforms?
   * <strong>***INPUTS CLOSED***</strong>

This of course is generic to all archives using VO protocols, so we have plans to contribute them as tutorials for distribution in </span>PyVO<span style="background-color: transparent;">. Our purposes have so far been NASA-specific, so we propose to present what we have done to the IVOA and open a discussion of how to improve our materials for a broader audience.</span>

This is an overview of the different implementations at different levels and for different project, with the objective to share common issues that were faced. This can open a discussion on the requirements of the community in terms of provenance tools.</span>
