Note:

This standard is formerly known as VOStandard; discussion of the standard has moved here.

The version 1.0 registry data model uses Resource Identifiers in several places to identify which standard a particular resource follows (e.g. the capability element's standardID attribute). The Identifiers spec requires that any IVOA ID must have an entry in an IVOA registry; this implies that the standard itself is registered. Furthermore, there is an increasing interest to use IVOA identifiers to identify concepts and properties (e.g. VOSpace); the underlying identifier thus must be registered as well. The VOStandard data model and schema provides a framework in which IVOA standards can be described in the registry.

The goals of this extension are:

• allow support for an IVOA standard be recognized via an IVOA identifier (e.g. as in standardID)
• allow users to discover documentat about a standard protocol via the registry (in particular, via records of instances of the standard).
• allow one to define and use IVOA identifiers to identify a concept or property.
