To all of us who are left, I've recently heard that the use case document has been approved for publication as a GGF Informational Document. No one has stepped forward to take the reigns of the group in this last six months of "revival", and so I'm going to go ahead and ask that our Area Directors (now John Tollefsrud and Hiro Kishimoto) finalise the group and dispatch it off to that Great Standardisation Body in the The Sky. Personally, I've also reached an end to my GGF attendance. I have various reasons, but this is not the venue for that discussion. I may continue to read a couple of the lists, but really, I'm done - it's time for me to beat my retreat. So, fare thee well, and maybe I'll run into you at HPDC or SC. So long, Jon.
Jon, It was about six months ago that we discussed closing down GESA.. except there was this nearly-finished use case document. You took the initiative to wrap up GESA on a strong note by pushing the doc out. And you did! A terrific job. It's bittersweet that GGF gains a document while it loses someone like you who can make it happen. It doesn't seem like we're ahead. Thanks again for the fine effort Jon. I hope to see you soon so I can buy you a beer. jt
