Hi All, Some recent circumstances have forced me to quit my job and become a stay-at-home dad for a year. I will probably monitor things from time to time, but at this point I don't have any plans to continue my involvement in the BES and HPCP working groups. Participating in these working groups has been a lot of fun as well as a useful experience. I learned a lot. It was nice meeting those of you who I did meet at OGF, and I regret missing many of the other HPCP demo participants at SC. Good luck to everyone and the future of open standards. Peter P.S. Please contact Stu Martin (smartin@mcs.anl.gov) if you need to ask any questions about the Globus Project's BES implementation/plans.
