Some people have found the following problem: They are able to complete the process of registration apparently successfully, and receive an acknowledgment. But their name does not appear in the list of registered participants on the meeting website. We are looking into the matter, and until the matter is resolved, I request all those who have already registered, and those who will be registering in the future to kindly do the following: After you complete registration, please check whether your name appears in the list. if it does not, please send mail regarding the matter to interop at iucaa.ernet.in. As an aside, I request all intending participants to register, apply for a visa and book accommodation as soon as possible.

This results of a discussion at the preparatory TCG meeting a few weeks ago. We all know that implementation of the IVOA standards by the data centres and services is critical for VO success. This session was set up, as a plenary one, to trigger discussion on this fundamental topic. The aim is to share lessons learnt and feedback on implementation and to discuss implementation tools. WG chairs are encouraged to be ready to say a few words on the topic in their respective domains, and short contributions of individuals can also be envisaged. Can you please contact me if you wish to present a contribution? The detailed programme will be established at a later stage when I know more about who is willing to talk. Cheers Francoise
