Hi all, As you may already know, OGSA Basic Execution Service WG Charter BoF will be held at GGF13 (Mar. 16 Wed, 9-10:30am). OGSA-WG will have a preparation discussion on upcoming Monday call (March 7th, 5-6:30pm CDT) and would invite you to join discussion. Craig, John: May I ask you to forward this invitation to your groups, SAGA-RG and DRMAA-WG, respectively? Thanks, ---- Hiro Kishimoto

From Draft Charter: The OGSA Execution Management Services (EMS) design team has developed as part of the OGSA V1 document a draft set of EMS services to support a wide range of use-cases. The objective of the proposed OGSA-BES working group is to focus on a minimal sub-set of the EMS services and develop a recommendations document (i.e., specification) for them. The working group will work closely with the WG/RGs within GGF, e.g. OGSA WG, JSDL WG, SAGA RG, GRAAP WG and also widely used pioneering projects; e.g. Globus, UNICORE, Condor, Legion, Platform, SGE, PBS, OMII, and others as appropriate.
