      * EN
         * !DataOrigin-1.2: PEN ( [[https://ivoa.net/documents/DataOrigin/20251031/][PEN doc]]): status & discussion
            * *Received feedback from 3 people, mostly editorial, including an updated provenance graph.*
            * *No blockers for this, but we should clarify moving forward the document process for ENs, e.g., where to share feedback*
      * Errata
         * any?
      * VEPs
         * any?

   * IVOA June 2026 Interoperbaility Meeting
      * webpage: https://indico.ict.inaf.it/event/3454
      * program page: https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/InterOpJune2026
      * program setup: https://wiki.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/ProgramPrep2026A
      * send out calls
      * propose sessions
      * *remember to register* (if you plan to attend and haven't done so yet)
      * CSP driven sessions
         * Science Platforms: 4 confirmed speaker + 2 invited
         * AI & archives: 1 confirmed + 3 potential
      * *Request from CSP for DAL and DM to have a joint session on spectral support*
      * *JE: Would like to follow up on High Energy progress. Perhaps a joint session to get others involved? DM/DAL? Maybe Apps too? This can help show how DMs are useful.*
         * *The audience seems large, so a plenary makes sense, so we should reserve one.*
      * *JS: One session for DSP should be fine*
      * *GL: One for DCP*
      * *TC: Likely one for Ops*

   * report on current activities, plans from here to June
      * *MCD - Working on documenting implementations for Transform model to be ready for full RFC*
      * *JR - Is gathering list of names interested in coming up with a VOEvent 3.0. Pleased with list so far from several communities. Feedback is that they are happy with flexibility to move beyond the XML transport standard. Will get a meeting together to kick off the effort.*
      * *MM - What are DSP standards that need updating? Any plans there?*
         * *JS - Working on authN using tokens. Federation is a known question but have not been talking about it so far. Software discovery service could be interesting.*
         * *MM - Maybe revamping VOSpace as well?*

   * IGs & TCG/CSP interfacing (draft idea here: https://yopad.eu/p/IVOA_IG_ToR_proposal-365days): contribute (e.g. by email to me)
      * *Of course this is an Exec issue, but would be informed very much by TCG input. Reminder to think about this and add your ideas. Can have follow-up discussions at Interop.*

   * how to handle priorities and activities besides documents on track and roadmaps
      * *Reminder to think about this and make suggestions.*

   * other topics
      * positions still TBF
         * Radio IG vice-chair role is open
            * *JE - Could SKA help with this?*
               * *JS - Difficult to find someone with time. Implementation of science platform is getting priority. Partly a marketing problem; i.e., there can be a mutual benefit*
            * *MM - Has not been successful working with Australian side of SKA.*
         * Edu IG vice-chair: open but something is moving
      * Coordination roles reaching nominal deadline
         * Registry, DCP: no extension
         * DM, DSP, Semantics, TD (deputy), Operations, SS (deputy), Radio (chair): extension possible
      * *Please let us know of your ideas for these roles*
      * new website: it is there, time to start renovations on content
         * *See https://github.com/ivoa/IvoaDocViewSite for technical details*
