Guru, Thank you for your comments (and next time please insert them into the tracking mechanism as they were provided as part of public comment period). responses to your comments embedded in pdf public comment doc: Comment, section 3, paragraph 2: The currency of this information plays a vital role too. I feel that we need to express that here especially due to the dynamic nature of Grid environment. Response: static and dynamic nature of information is discussed and provided by example in last paragraph of section 3 (just before start of section 4). Comment, section 3, last paragraph: There is no mention of the persistence of these capabilities. Again for the ones that change - RAM and load, there should be a note on its currentness and correctness. Also since the resource is responsible for advertising its capabilities, should the resource provide the algorithms for translating the high level requirements to XML. There is some amount of resource consumption somewhere for the translation and that is not coming across here. Response: Persistence is not a topic for this informational doc. Translation from detail managed resources to capabilities expressed in XML is beyond the scope of this document. Comment, section 4.1: change 'static' to 'relatively static' Response: Use of static given the example is correct. Comment, section 5.3, example 4 text: We need a mention of some fault tolerance here. In the sense that, what happens if a resource is excluded from the pool and there is an advertisement still alive for that resource. And, the it is being considered for a job by virtue of the advertisement. The primary nature of a grid resource pool is that it is dynamic in nature. Response: Again, this is an informational document, not an implementation document, so comment is beyond scope of document.
