VOTable and NULLs session at Pune

[Mark Taylor]

Dear VOTable,

the special session on NULL values in VOTable, as agreed by the TCG,
will take place on Thursday at `16:00 in Pune - see the bottom of
the page:

   http://www.ivoa.net/cgi-bin/twiki/bin/view/IVOA/InterOpOct2011Applications

There are already a few contributors.  I hope that my slides (previewed
on that wiki page) more or less represent the views of
me and other people on the topic as far as I know about them, but if 
anyone (including those not present in Pune) would like to make a 
contribution, let me know.  There will of course be ample time for 
open discussion in the session.

Hopefully we can reach a provisional decision on what (if anything) to do
about the matter in this session, however, in view of the wide use of
VOTable and possible impacts of changes, we're not going to make any 
final decision without allowing further consultation from those not
present here.

Mark
