2) Enumerations: approve enumerations process document
Previous: Action (Shiraz): Update enumeration management document with Git process AGREED: Group approves promoting InterfaceName_t from draft to official. Action (Florido): Update enumerations as discussed on the call and check-in to Git as official.

3) Cloud Extensions: Do we have champions to move forward with GLUE 2.1?

4) JSON: continue rendering discussions, discuss next steps.
Previous: AGREED: Release it for public comment. Action (JP/Shiraz): Submit it for public comment. Warren shared recent JSON rendering efforts. Shared bindings he developed that should be very useful to developers. Shiraz volunteered to upgrade Warren's bindings to Maven.
Shall we establish a less frequent schedule?

That didn't really work for me as I could only hear the people who were using Adobe Connect to speak. I have no idea what the problem was with Skype for business, I got no indication of any problem or anything I could have done differently. The problems with my microphone were on my side, I'm using a new machine and I haven't really sorted out how the various audio controls interact to set the level. Stephen

Action (Florido): Update enumerations as discussed on the call and check-in to Git as official. Action (Florido): Discuss clashing names and how to resolve with David and post what they decide to the list.
Status: Enumeration work is on hold until someone has the time to move it along. What follows is a summary prepared by Florido of work that needs to be performed: a) Most of the enumerations contained in GFD.147 are missing from git-hub CSV files. They should be added. This is kind of a monkey job. b) InterfaceName_t and Capability_t are the ones Florido and David (and every GLUE2-supported software developer in the world) should discuss. The problem is that services like GOCDB created their own names and single software created their own and sometimes they clash, i.e. an Endpoint has different OpenEmumerations representing the same thing on different systems. We should keep one of each and mark Recommended and Deprecated. Florido once made a list of those that should be summarized, here: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zuEiCP-0mQVJWOCGWxnKJ5p9vetLMIfN_AwF... c) Some enumerations are hard to keep track of. Examples are operating system names, versions, distributions. It is not clear how a new operating system should be mapped to its GLUE2 equivalent. Neither is clear who should collect and diffuse this information: the GLUE2 group or the users? d) There is an ongoing debate on how to represent protocols in general. In practice the use case is on the storage elements. They want to put such information in the InterfaceName. I would rather prefer to have it in Capabilities. Either way we will have a plethora of possible combinations of interfacenames and capabilities. E.g. a storage element that can understand three protocols should have either three Endpoints with different interfacenames for each protocol or a list of capabilities for each transfer capability and protocol. Example: Option 1) Using InterfaceNames StorageService 3 Endpoints: myendpoint.http Capability: data.transfer myendpoint.ftp Capability: data.transfer myendpoint.sftp Capability: data.transfer Option 2) Using Capabilities: StorageService 1 Endpoint: mystorageendpoint Capability: data.transfer.ftp data.transfer.http data.transfer.sftp 4) Cloud Extensions: Do we have champions to move forward with GLUE 2.1? Victor Fernandez responded with interest to the list Work on hold until someone who is interested joins the group (from EGI or elsewhere) 5) We shared some brief GLUE 2 status updates about NorduGrid, OSG and BDII, the WLCG information task force, and XSEDE. We agreed that slightly longer updates in future meetings would be useful. Action (JP): Send David the recent XSEDE 15 GLUE 2 Publish-Subscribe Implementation Paper (DONE) 6) Our next meeting will be November 3, 2015 at 8:30 AM CDT, 15:30 PM CET Regards, JP p.s. please reply with corrections and additions

There was a WLCG meeting yesterday which may be of interest (many of us were there anyway). The EGI presentation indicated that they want to reactivate GLUE 2.1, for both clouds and GPUs: https://indico.cern.ch/event/441747/
Action (JP): Send David the recent XSEDE 15 GLUE 2 Publish-Subscribe Implementation Paper (DONE)
Could you send it here too? It seems that WLCG may well be interested in the JSON rendering,. Stephen
