---++ Proposals for VOTable 1.5

Work will begin on VOTable 1.5 immediately after 1.4 goes to Recommendation.

| *Title* | *Source* | *Notes* | *Updated* |
| Port the VOTable source to ivoatex. | <a target="_blank" href="http://mail.ivoa.net/pipermail/apps/2019-February/001349.html">email</a> | | |
| DataLink recommends using a "content" parameter. Consider mentioning it in sec. 8 (MIME types) to avoid other standards reinventing the same thing with a different name. | <a target="_blank" href="http://mail.ivoa.net/pipermail/apps/2019-February/001341.html" title="email">email</a> | Defer to 1.5. There are no responses yet. If consensus is reached that this is a simple change, then it could be in 1.4. | 2019-03-17 |
| Add optional "origin" or "refposition" attribute to COOSYS | <a target="_blank" href="http://mail.ivoa.net/pipermail/apps/2019-February/001347.html" title="email">email</a> | Defer to 1.5. This change has support, but the details are not yet resolved, so may delay 1.4. | 2019-03-17 |
| Remove mention of UType in section 1.4, as it is lacking a standard. | <a target="_blank" href="http://mail.ivoa.net/pipermail/apps/2019-February/001357.html" title="email">email</a> | Defer to 1.5. | 2019-03-17 |
| Sec. 4.6: Remove paragraph "In order to avoid name collisions..." | <a target="_blank" href="http://mail.ivoa.net/pipermail/apps/2019-February/001357.html" title="email">email</a> | Defer to 1.5. | 2019-03-17 |
