Dear all, The TC-RG (Trusted Computing Research Group) is now up and running; welcome to those who have signed up to the list. Others are welcome to join (by sending a message to majordomo@ggf.org, saying `s*bscribe tc-rg' ---replace the * with a u. Majordomo bounces this message when I spell it out in full). We are planning two meetings at GGF14: Wenbo is arranging a seminar in the community track programme, with several speakers talking about experiences so far with TC. We will also have a TC-RG research group session, with an opportunity to discuss those topics, and hear about progress towards our goals. One of those goals is a use case document. I'd be pleased to hear from anyone who wants to contribute a (possible, potential, actual, etc.) use case for trusted computing in Grid middleware or applications. I'll begin to collate these with the ideas presented at the BOF. Please send your ideas to the TC-RG list. Best regards Andrew Martin and Wenbo Mao.
