2. ESAVO/European Space Astronomy Centre (ESAC) Villafranca del Castillo, MADRID (SPAIN) Pedro Osuna ASVOWS 21-23 Mar 2007 ESAC  To gather together scientists from the different branches of the Astronomical Spectroscopy community and get their wishes for a useful Virtual Observatory  To transmit to scientists from the Spectroscopy community what the Virtual Observatory is, how it could help them, and what there is already available  To get inputs from the community to improve current IVOA standards and applications so that the VO starts to be known as a helpful tool in everyday’s work.  Expected deliverables: workshop proceedings and report with inputs from the community to be presented to the IVOA community in next IVOA interop meeting The objectives of the workshop
