Dear PC
members,
Thank you once again
for helping to organise the programme for this week's events. I think they
went very well. We had over 900 attend during the course of the week and a
significant number stayed for all or most of the week. I haven't had
feedback from all the sessions but I believe the workshops were well attended
and I know the Grids Mean Business and the dedicated EGEE sessions went very
well.
A notable aspect of
the week was the good interaction between the different communities. In
particular, the colocation of the OGF and EGEE events has helped to show
both sides where standards can apply or are needed. The commercial
delegates helped to guide the requirements for standardisation work as well as
sharing information on best practice. The exhibition space had a
particularly good showing of EC-funded R&D projects as well as the EGEE
demos, which certainly gave me a better picture of what these projects aim to
achieve, in addition to stands from industry sponsors and UK
e-Science.
Thank you once
again.
