Hi all, we had three very productive sessions at OGF33 - thanks for all who contributed to the discussions! Attached are the meeting notes, provided by Steve (thanks! :-) I would like to add some notes from other OGF sessions, for those who are interested. DRMAA The DRMAA API version 2 is in public comment now. We have been closely interacting with the DRMAA WG over the last year, to ensure that DRMAA and SAGA are well aligned in concepts and semantics. I would like to encourage people to have a look at the DRMAA API draft, and to provide public comments, at http://ogf.org/gf/docs/comment.php?id=377 GridRPC It seems that the GridRPC activities are slowly winding down, as one of the main contributing groups lost parts of its funding, and is changing focus. The group will however finish its current efforts on its RPC data handle API. PGI PGI is finally making progress, and works towards a set of specifications and profiles which will eventually extent/replace the current set of BES and JSDL specifications. Feel free to ask questions on any other groups you are interested in. Please note that the next OGF event is planned for March 12-14, 2012 in Oxford, UK. OGF35 will likely be co-located with HPDC-21, on June 18-22, 2012 in Delft, Netherlands. Cheers, Andre. -- Nothing is ever easy...
