Hiro/OGF, Thank you for your kind words, it has been a privilege and joy helping to produce the ACS specification. I am looking forward to continuing to contribute as both personal and professional time/ resources can allow. Pete. On Nov 6, 2007, at 7:58 PM, Hiro Kishimoto wrote:

Hi Keisuke and Pete,

On behalf of Grid Forum Steering Group, Ellen and I would like to express our sincere thanks and appreciation for your contributions and leadership. Your achievement, ACS specification 1.0, is very important for Grid community.

Although ACS-WG will advance to completed status, all WG materials and mailing list archive will be kept in GridForge. Thus it can be taken up by someone in the future.

Thanks again, ---- Ellen Stokes and Hiro Kishimoto, Management Area co-Directors

Thank you very much for your leadership! I continue to point out the ACS specification to various parties when they realize the need for a standard specification which provides for secure distributed access to application contents.

Folks,

Unfortunately due to a change in work responsibilities I can no longer continue as ACS-WG chair. If there is anyone who would like to take on the chair position please contact Peter Ziu <pete.ziu.ggf@ziu.net> or myself.

The alternative to selecting a new chair is to close down the group. This may be a good time to do so as we have already completed our main work by publishing the ACS specification and there are no outstanding work items.

Regards, Keisuke Fukui acs-wg co-chair
