Abstract
Gaia will not observe 50000 brown dwarfs, but about 100 times less. However, these <~ 500 brown dwarfs will be benchmarks for many substellar topics. It is possible to identify them in advance and make the list public to all astronomers worldwide through a virtual observatory-compliant "Gaia brown dwarf" catalogue. This M-, L- and T-dwarf Archive of Interest for Astrophysics would tabulate precise Gaia astrometry, multiband photometry, high- and low-resolution spectroscopy and homogeneously derived astrophysical parameters. Spanish observatories may play a key role in the catalogue preparation.
