Dear VO enthusiast

You may be interested in the report which I have just submitted to
CODATA (the Committee on Scientific Data of the International Council of
Science) describing the status of astronomical data management,
including the VO. It's on

http://www.atnf.csiro.au/people/rnorris/WGAD/IAUCodataReport2004.htm

I attach the abstract below.

Cheers

Ray

Abstract

This report describes the current status of data handling in astronomy,
including the growth and development of interoperable terabyte data
archives, and summarises the vigorous current activity in the
international development of the Virtual Observatory. It identifies the
need for the IAU to develop a strategic framework for data management in
astronomy, with recommendations to guide and assist individual
observatories and organisations. It recommends that the IAU should be
proactive in working with the ICSU and CODATA, both to participate in
the ICSU framework, and to bring that experience to the development of
an astronomical framework.

 Sections 1-4 of this report give background and describe the activities
since the last CODATA General Assembly. Section 5 discusses the issue of
Open Access and the need for a strategic framework for data management.
