Hi guys, I am ;late to the party, but would like to comment on the 'validity'. On Mon, Apr 20, 2015 at 8:03 PM, Paul Millar <paul.millar@desy.de> wrote:
Hi JP,
I'm still wondering whether there really are "intrinsic" Validity values, as Stephen seems to suggests.
I actually think that information remain valid forever. Monday, April 15 2015, 8pm : number of free nodes : 2126 That information item was created on Monday -- but it is still true when I look at it on Tuesday (and thus is valid). Now, the *current* number of free nodes may have changed, of course, so the information may not be *useful* anymore -- but that is something different. If information is useful is in the eye of the beholder, not of the information provider. A post-mortem statistics gatherer will find it useful, an on-demand scheduler placing a job on Tuesday may not. My $0.02, Andre. -- 99 little bugs in the code. 99 little bugs in the code. Take one down, patch it around. 127 little bugs in the code...
