Comments from the IVOA Community and TCG members during RFC period: 2017-02-07 - 2017-03-07

Comments from Mark Taylor

Document looks clear, and I support moving to a version that drops the SOAP-based client interfaces. I fixed some extremely minor typos in volute. One question (just curiosity really): what's the reason for introducing the new requirement for time granularity at the level of seconds that's mentioned in section 2.7? -- MarkTaylor - 2017-03-08

  • Without this requirement, a client has to retrieve an Identify response from a service to figure out what arguments it can pass. Everyone had implemented seconds granularity anyway, so it seemed reasonable to do away with one "free parameter". -- MarkusDemleitner - 2017-04-04

Since VOSI 1.1 is also near the end of RFC, could we update the reference to the 1.1 version instead of 1.0? It won't put any more burden on this spec than the 1.0 version does.

I think, in the capabilities example in Appendix C, it should be maxReturnRecords rather than maxRecords. (See: VOResource http://ivoa.net/documents/VOResource/20170425/PR-VOResource-1.1-20170425.html)

Also in the capabilities example: I'm not sure what the extensionSearchSupport element is... I see that it's in the SOAP based schema, but I don't see it in VOResource.

-- BrianMajor - 2017-05-03

I support the change to VOSI 1.1 since it won't affect existing implementations of this spec and will change it in the RI1.1 document text absent strong objections.

In the capabilities examples, "maxRecords" is the element in the vg:Registry extension as defined in v1.0 of Registry Interfaces. I agree from the VOResource spec that MaxReturnRecords would be more appropriate, but we are intending to keep this a backward-compatible v1.x document. Given that maxRecords is used in client and inter-registry harvesting processes, changing this element could break a good deal of infrastructure. If we move to a version 2.0 of this document in the future, I would like to incorporate this change, but not in 1.1.

The extensionSearchSupport element is a deprecated tag from RI 1.0 intended to report whether the SOAP search capability of a searchable registry would handle only core VOResource elements or extension metadata, like capabilities. Since we are dropping the SOAP search capability but remaining a 1.x version document, it is deprecated but not removed. This can also be changed in 2.0.

Okay, thanks Theresa. With the VOSI 1.1 change above I approve this document.

Registry, unsurprisingly, approves.
