IVOA Vocabularies document now a Proposed Recommendation

The IVOA's 'vocabularies' document, proposing that the IVOA adopt SKOS as a standard framework for formalising controlled vocabularies, is now a Proposed Recommendation, and in its RFC period, until 2008 October 17.
Phew.  It's ended up taking somewhat longer than I expected it would, but I'm confident this will provide a firm foundation for lots of interesting and useful semantics work in the VO in future.
