If this > point doesn't come across in the appendix text, I have no problem > modifying the text. 5) Wrap up (10 min) AOB <*NEXT CALL*> https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/wiki1477?nav=1 Oct. 5 (Thu): Security, secure channel profile review Oct. 9 (Mon): EGA reference model, OGSA roadmap Oct. 12 (Thu): <No call?> Oct. 16 (Mon): Information/data modeling Oct. 19 (Thu): Security, secure channel profile review Oct. 23 (Mon): EGA reference model, OGSA roadmap <*ACTION ITEMS*> https://forge.gridforum.org/sf/go/wiki1569?nav=1 > From Sept. 25 call.
