About
The project is committed to standardisation and is a core member of the HTN consortium, and an active participant in the IVOA standards process. We also closely follow the evolution of the RTML standard which is used extensively by the project as the basis of our inter-agent communication protocol, and more recently by the HTN consortium as the basis of the recently agreed HTN protocol.
