>During the last IVOA executive meeting, the IVOA Theory Interest Group was
>formed with the goal of ensuring that theoretical data and services are
>taken into account in the IVOA standards process. In a whitepaper
>published on the IVOA site (see
>http://www.ivoa.net/pub/papers/TheoryInTheVO.pdf) issues specific to
>theory are discussed. The document also summarizes tasks that a possible
>theory working group should accomplish, listed here as a proposed charter
>for the group.
>
>The IVOA Theory Interest Group will:
>- Provide a forum for discussing theory specific issues in a VO context.
>- Contribute to other IVOA working groups to ensure that theory specific
>requirements are included.
>- Incorporate standard approaches defined in these groups
>when designing and implementing services on theoretical archives.
>- Define standard services relevant for theoretical archives.
>- Define relevant milestones and assign specific tasks to interested
>parties.
>
>In the short term, we plan to define a roadmap for activities over the
>remainder of this year, hopefully including proposals for implementing
>theory specific demonstrations to be delivered early 2005. This roadmap
>will be discussed and finalized at the next interoperability meeting in
>Cambridge, MA.

>Please subscribe to the Theory mailing list at http://www.ivoa.net/forum/
>if you are interested in contributing to this group. A Twiki page has been
>made available at http://www.ivoa.net/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/IvoaTheory.
>Please also inform theorists whom you think may be interested in
>contributing to this effort. We are planning to have a section of the
