Hi,
You should note some IVOA process here:
# Working Group prepares Working Draft (version ≥1.0) and submits to Document Coordinator for posting in the IVOA document collection. # Working Group reviews the Working Draft. Two reference implementations of any associated software are recommended. # The Chair of the Working Group, with consent of the WG, promotes the document to a Proposed Recommendation and submits it to the Document Coordinator for posting in the IVOA document collection. # The Chair of the Working Group issues a formal Request for Comments (RFC) to the e-mail distribution list interop-at-ivoa.net. The RFC and all comments must be logged on a TWiki page whose URL is given in the RFC. A minimum comment period of 4 weeks must be allowed. # The Working Group Chair responds to comments on the TWiki page. If comments lead to significant changes to the document, the status reverts to Working Draft (back to Step 1).
In particular, I'm curious whether we have two reference implementations of associated software and if so, what is it and what does it do? It's also entirely possible that this is inappropriate for this specification.
Cheers,
Matthew
