Description


This is a special publishing registry that describes resources that represent important infrastructure components to the VO registry framework. A primary purpose is to provide a registry to discover other publishing registries. A registry that wants to harvest all records known to the VO can first harvest from this registry a list of all known publishing registries (via the IVOA Registry Interface for harvesting with set=ivoa_publishers). An interactive interface allows publishing registry providers to check their interfaces and make their registries known to the framework. This registry also describes standard protocols recognized by the IVOA.
