---++ Writing Registry Records for IVOA Standards

Standard authors using IVOIDs in their standards (for instance, to give
capability identifiers) must, others should submit registry records for
their documents.  This page tries to guide you through this process.

---+++ Starting a record from scratch

The format of the registry record is prescribed by
[[http://ivoa.net/documents/StandardsRegExt/][StandardsRegExt]], but
trying to work through that document and all the prerequisites just to
write a record for your standard would be overkill.

Rather, start from a
[[https://volute.g-vo.org/svn/trunk/projects/ivoapub/ivoatex/stdrec-template.xml][template]]
that is provided as part of the [[http://ivoatex.g-vo.org][ivoatex]]
authoring system; of course, it can be used without ivoatex, too.

If working with ivoatex in the recommended way, authors should have
their standards record under version control, too.  It is recommended to
say

<verbatim>
	svn copy ivoatex/stdrec-template.xml ExampleStandard.vor
</verbatim>

and edit ExampleStandard.vor.
