The 2006 spring IVOA Interoperability meeting will be held in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada, from May 14-19.
The venue for the meeting is the Laurel Point Inn, located on Victoria's beautiful inner harbour. The hotel is walking distance to downtown, where you'll find plenty of restaurants and pubs. May 22nd is a holiday in Canada, so it would be advisable to make your hotel reservations early!! Sessions are expected to start at 9am daily, and the afternoon session on Friday will wrap-up at 3:30pm, to accomodate those with evening flights. The banquet dinner is scheduled for Thursday evening.
Working Groups: VOTable, UCDs, Registry, Data Models, Data Access Layer, VO Query Language, Grid and Web Services, and VOEvent.
Interest Groups: Applications, Theory
The chairs of the Working Groups and Interest Groups are requested to prepare summary reports for the opening plenary session that describe progress to date and plans for the Interop meeting.
A more detailed schedule will be posted when it becomes available,
however the meeting format will be very similar
to that of last year's meeting in Kyoto. We look forward to seeing you
in May!

meeting, please send them to cadc@nrc.ca.
