---+ The !SimDB-Registry Connection 

Here we discuss the relations between !SimDB and the Registry.

---++ Questions to consider

   * How should a !SimDB be registered?
   * !SimDB/Resource is not equivalent to Registry/Resource, but has clear correspondences. Should these be made "formal" in some way, for example using UTYPEs.
   * Some !SimDB/Resources could/should be registered in a registry as well. This is one motivation for !SimDB/Project for example. Can this be postponed to later version?
   * In view of previous point, can !SimDB be seen as an "extension registry"? Should this be formalised (in a later version)?
   * What can !SimDB learn from registry efforts regarding:
      * allowing (and specifying ?) upload of new resource-s
      * harvesting
      * use of references to other existing, registered resources (unsing IVO Identifiers).
      * query interfaces
   * other ...

---++ Discovery Use Cases and Requirements

The common ground between !SimDB and Registries is in discovering of data and services.
