Abstract
A catalog of 233 strong compact extragalactic radio sources which display optical counterparts has been prepared by the working group as a basis for the establishment of an almost inertial extragalactic reference frame. Optical properties of the catalog sources are summarized and further requirements for a refinement and extension of the present data are discussed.Keywords
