All,

FYI: The IANA registry for well-known URIs [1] has now been updated
with '.well-known/void'.

What does this mean for you?

If you are dataset publisher and deploy a VoID description, you're
encouraged to implement the discovery via .well-known URI as described
in [2].

If you are a dataset consumer chances are that over time all you need
to do is to append '.well-known/void' to the host and you'll get a
description of the dataset in VoID.

Cheers,
Michael
