GLUE2 enumerations
by Florido Paganelli 09 Feb '21

09 Feb '21

Hi all I haven't been following the progress in this group for quite a while, as a matter of fact I do not even know if this channel is still official. I've been asked by Greg from UKRI STFC in UK (in CC) about the status of the Open Enumerations registry at https://github.com/OGF-GLUE/Enumerations I recall David Meredith was taking care of merging pull requests but I do not see any updated procedure anywhere and I think he is no longer actively doing the merges. I wonder how we should go about it. Right now most of my research group is on vacation and I do not know how much NorduGRID/ARC is interested in being part of this. If Greg and UKRI STFC are interested in maintaining the registry I will gladly give them rights to approve merge requests. My only complaint after a quick look at the current pull requests https://github.com/OGF-GLUE/Enumerations/pulls Is that some of the new strings are not all lowercase. I would prefer they are all lowercase at least, to be consistent with the rest of GLUE2. But I do not know what happened in GLUE2.1 and how much you kept consistency. I must sadly say I lost interest long ago in the group activities mainly for the lack of consistency in some that I believe were critical decisions so my enthusiasm about the subject is low. About the pending merge requests, I think the namespaces in the pull requests are all well formed, one should check case by case how much they conform to the expected values and how good the descriptions are, I remember we had different opinions about these details as well but I forgot what it was about. I have the feeling the word ServiceType is overused as there is some confusion about what is a GLUE2 ServiceType and what is a GOCDB servicetype, but as said I've been far from this and lost track. I'd say from my side as long as it doesn't affect ARC/NorduGRID negatively I don't really care about which strings end up in this registry. I think the main point is, was there ever consensus on this document which defines formats and other similar things? http://redmine.ogf.org/dmsf_files/13224?download= Clearly not since the document suggest scheduled venues for the merges that clearly never happened. Sad. But partly also my bad for not following up. Would be nice to update such document and the information on github with the actual procedure including pull requests.

Test copy of GLUE 2.1 latest edited draft imported into GitBook
by Sill, Alan 16 Sep '20

16 Sep '20

We are making progress on learning to use GitBook for document production. It’s a bit of a manual process, but features have been improving and we have worked out a pretty straightforward importing process. I've taken the latest draft I could find with edits suggested by Jens’s and Björn's feedback posted here: https://redmine.ogf.org/boards/43/topics/506?r=522 (cf. Shiraz’z notes from the GLUE WG teleconference, Tuesday, November 12, 2019 sent November 13, 2019) and built a test document in Word to use for import testing. Note in this test document, I have accepted all changes and suppressed comments; we can start from another version if desired. Note also that GitBook has its own branching and merging functions as well as the ability to edit, and there is an integration that we have turned on to GitHub that should allow for pull requests and issues in addition to the GitBook draft and merge functionality. The GitBook version of this test document is at the following link: https://open-grid-forum.gitbook.io/glue-2-1-test/ This should be readable by anyone and editable by anyone in the GitBook OGF-GLUE team from within GitBook. The GitHub synchronized copy is at the following link: https://github.com/OpenGridForum/OGF-GLUE-2.1-test The navigation there is by “slug” (the page/section label used within GitBook) and so the document does not display as prettily in GitHub, but should be navigable and suitable for branching, editing, and pull requests as well as discussion of issues in the GitHub setting. this repository is readable and clone-able by anyone in the OGF-GLUE GitHub team (https://github.com/orgs/OpenGridForum/teams/ogf-glue/members) which at this point is different from the GitBook teams. but I or JP should be able to add members with write or other levels of editing and maintaining privileges to either team, or both. Documentation on use of GitBook is available at the following link. https://docs.gitbook.com Please try this out (you won’t be harming anything permanent as this is a test copy) and let me know if we can do anything further to help move the GLUE group to this new document production process. Thanks, Alan

Second half of glue review
by Jensen, Jens (STFC,RAL,SC) 08 Nov '19

08 Nov '19

Hello GLUE group. I have added the second half of the GLUE 2.1 review to https://redmine.ogf.org/boards/43/topics/506?r=522 Note that I didn't really review it as an implementer; that would take much more time (although it would be an interesting exercise). So it's mostly grammar, consistency, readability, typos, etc. Not sure if I can remember to join the call on the 12th (I'll be remote) but I don't think you need me? Regards --jens

Hi Shiraz, JP, I was wondering if the GLUE 2.1 was definitively approved since it depends on that several important changes in the EGI cloud services that we would like to implement soon.

28 Jun '18

Dear all, as agreed during our last meeting, the Glue 2.1 document is now ready for internal comments: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1BpeTBQfCn8xRo4Ff38esRhBwzoUHE4bVxba2rEA… - all the new classes are highlighted in yellow and are also listed at the end of the document in the appendix C, together new attributes added to the existing classes and new data types; - some attributes are highlighted as well because either modified or added over the past months/years discussions; - I've update the links in the Reference chapter. There is one link I wasn't able to find: Open Grid Forum reference Model 2.0. For some other documents, I found them into https://redmine.ogf.org/projects/glue-wg , I don't know if there is a more official link... please verify all the links - If I've well understood, in the list of authors we should include only the people contributing to this version, shouldn't we?
