Tom's email bounced. ---- Hiro Kishimoto Date: Tue, 8 Feb 2005 11:46:59 -0500 (EST) From: Tom Goodale <goodale@cct.lsu.edu> To: "Rajic, Hrabri" <hrabri.rajic@intel.com> Cc: saga-rg@ggf.org, ogsa-wg@ggf.org, Bill Nitzberg <bill@computer.org>, Stephen Pickles <stephen.pickles@man.ac.uk> Subject: Re: OGSA EMC BoF on Simple job submission Hi Hrabri,

Are OGSA EMC people aware of the most recent SAGA-RG work?

Chris Smith from Platform, who's been putting together the job stuff for the Strawman is also involved in the OGSA EMS.

Would SAGA-RG people like to engage OGSA EMC and possibly co-sponsor a Simple job submission WG? This could be a nice opportunity to tie in the classic API and the WSDL approach.

I'm not sure how relevent this would be, unless you are thinking of a direct mapping of the SAGA API into WSDL, which may not make sense, and would probably constrain the new group too much, however we should certainly make sure we have some people at the BoF.

One thing to consider: Do we really need APIs in SRM, APME, and now in ARCH areas?

I'm not sure I understand this question ? We have APIs for the functional areas we identified from our use cases. Tom

---- from "[ogsa-wg] Proposed agenda for Feb. 7th call" mail by Hiro -------

4) Simple job submission BoF preparation (30 min) From the minutes of Jan. 19 call.

...

- There is a plan to do an EM-related BoF. Stacey should know about it but it is not the job of the OGSA-WG to tell her---the proposed-chairs should do it. Preparation has not progressed to that point yet so Andrew as Area Director will take care of it.

...

Action: Andrew as Area director to send an email to the directors of the relevant Area (SRM: Bill, Stephen) to let them know of the proposed BoF; also to Stacey to reserve a slot.

...

- Andrew mentioned that on the Data call there was a discussion for a similar BoF for Data.
