Thijs, I have a 1-year undergraduate student project running which aims to build a cloud computing platform in a shared-nothing environment, focusing on standards and automatic failover, HA features and zero configuration. Although this is only loosely related to OCCI, it might be interesting for the folks; besides that, I am encouraging the students to have a look at OGF standards (including BES and DRMAA), and -- depending on the outcomes of OCCI -- hopefully steer them into supporting this as well. Drop me a note, if you are interested. I have to fix up the slides (don't have them available), so I'd like to know in advance whether I should bother at all.

Hi folks,

For our first session there are still some open time slots for presentations. I would love to see some presentations regarding OCCI or presentations which are in the broader field of OCCI. Optimal would be if you got a presentation which describes why OCCI is cool and why you and your team are working on it.

On the last concalls I asked some of you if you could send me the presentations. You do not have to be at OGF in person, since I think we'll have a dial-in option in the room. So you can present via the concall while I switch the slides.

For those of you, who stated they wanted to present something and want to present something, please send me the slides till Tuesday (next week).

All the best,

-Thijs
