Comments on DICE IDC protocol informational document
by Guy Roberts 28 Jul '10

28 Jul '10

Hello NSI participants, Since we have not receive any public comments on our 'IDC protocol' informational document, I would like to encourage NSI participants to comment. You can do this by visiting this link, logging in with your OGF account and adding some text to the comment box: http://forge.ogf.org/sf/go/artf6446 To encourage you in this, I include this quote from the OGF procedures document: "In addition to providing a forum for suggestions, Public Comments offer an opportunity for affirmation. Simple statements from Area Directors, group members, and others in the OGF community that a document was read and was found useful can help to reinforce notions of the document's readiness for publication. Input from experts who are not active in the OGF community can provide further reinforcement and, in fact, can be required for some documents." http://www.gridforum.org/documents/GFD.152.pdf If you do not have an account and would like to contribute a comment you are welcome to send these to me and I can submit them for you. Regards, Guy Roberts NSI working group

updated NSI framework
by John Vollbrecht 23 Jul '10

Hi Guy - This seems quite good to me, still a couple small (I hope) edits. I accepted all changes in your doc and added edits to it so you can seem them easily. Some are wording changes. The most important have to do with defining a network consistently. A network is a group STPs with a transfer function that is available to a particular NSA. A network might be federated (with multiple operators and NRMs) or leaf (with only an NRM and single operator). The edits are to avoid confusion about the difference between federated and leaf networks and NSAs. Thanks for your hard work on this -- John

edits for version 1.0/ with new file name
by John Vollbrecht 21 Jul '10

21 Jul '10

Attached are edits for version 1.0./ with .jrv included in the filename to avoid confusion. It is the same file as I sent a few minutes ago with the addition to the name. Again, I assume changes discussed this morning will be included in next version. Mostly the changes are editorial. I also include comments where I think it could be improved but am ok with it in this form for initial release. These comments may resurface during review period :) I also note that I agree with Jerry's comments and suggestion about Complex Example. I would like to review hierarchical and chain models if they get included. Jerry also said this morning that he is still reviewing the Trust section and not to pay attention to what is there yet -- I will look at that when it is available. John
