One more point: I don't think this should be called the OGSA-BEM BOF or WG.
FYI: The OGSA Resource Usage Service that has been a WG since GGF6. I've heard no complaints about this name. We've been quiet recently but are meeting at this GGF...
As we've discussed on several occasions, things may be approved as part of OGSA when completed and widely adopted. We can't pre-approve things, or imply that we are pre-approving things, as the name OGSA-BEM does.
Surely, you mean approved as part of a profile? OGSA-WG controlling that makes sense. Does the OGSA-WG control other WGs? I thought that was what GFSG (or whatever it may soon be called) does...? But maybe that too has changed!
