It’s that time of year again… the sun is out, the holiday season nearly upon us, your thoughts must turn to OGF related work… it must be time to think about HPC Basic Profile interop.

Following on from the ‘proof of concept’ demonstrators from last year, we expect this year to have ‘prototypes’ that are part of many organizations product plans with commitments to ship (or have shipped) HPCP complaint services. Our experiences this year with the published specifications will form the basis of the experiences document (see Glenn’s outline) submitted to OGF to show that these specifications are implementable and being implemented!

To kick start this process I would like to suggest a planning call next Thursday 16^th August at 8AM PACIFIC for 1 hour.

Regards,

Steven
