SAMP v1.2 RFC Discussion
This page will be used for public discussion of the SAMP v1.2 Proposed Recommendation. Version 1.2 is a minor revision of the first SAMP Recommendation, v1.1. The changes are detailed in Appendix B of the document, and consist of only two items:
- Use of new SAMP HUB environment variable lockfile location option documented in section 4.3.
- Added Non-Technical Preamble section 1.1 as per agreement for all new/revised IVOA documents.
Neither of these items is subject to unresolved controversies within the Apps/SAMP community.
It should therefore be very easy for TCG members to examine the changes and comment on approval/disapproval!
Implementations
There are two interoperating implementations of the entire SAMP standard, including the new SAMP_HUB feature:
JSAMP also includes a validation suite which performs validation of nearly all aspects of the standard. SAMPy and JSAMP both pass these validation tests.
