Preliminary meeting agenda:
1. Meeting secretary for this meeting?
Roger
2. Final discussion of survey results (see http://www.ogf.org/pipermail/drmaa-wg/2008-July/000913.html)
- Review of the above linked document - A draft DRMAA2 spec containing annotations for the Survey Results was distributed by Peter.
3. Ongoing development (Condor Java DRMAA, Condor C DRMAA bugs, test suite, SGE ?)
- Platform Computing now has official document links to the FedStage DRMAA implementation. - DRMAA Test Suite continues to evolve and should be leveraged to progress towards the goal of common semantics between implementations. The announcement of updates to the test suite should be distributed soon. - The Java DRMAA implementation has a language-specific document which adheres to the semantics of the IDL spec. A similar document for the JAVA Python implementation should be distributed soon. - Piotr has requested feedback from the SGE-DRMAA implementation team related to the Aug-2008 discussion about the intended drmaa_wifaborted behavior. - Victor briefly described his efforts in producing a DRMAA Condor implementation for Java using JNI; leveraging both Dan's work with the DRMAA SGE Java binding and Peter's work with the DRMAA C-lang Condor implementation. - A request was made for Victor to provide workflow examples.
4. Organizational stuff (new home page, test suite moved)
- The wiki has been replaced by a more conventional (more easily maintained) web page. Peter has offered to facilitate content additions and/or changes. - The DRMAA Test Suite has been moved to GridForge.
5. Going forward - DRMAA2 (see http://www.ogf.org/pipermail/drmaa-wg/2008-September/000926.html)
- The intent is to populate the DRMAA2 draft spec with additional detail for existing items (largely obtained from the survey), and to add new proposals. Peter has agreed to update the draft spec and update/create trackers as per email list discussion. - ACTION ITEM: Review DRMAA2 draft spec and make suggestions for improvement.
