Page 3 (characteristics and goals) Infrastructure Virtualization It may be a characteristic of Grids (but not a necessary one). I don't think it is a goal either (at least w.r.t. Infrastructure). I would remove that one. Further virtualization work is not being done (infrastructure-wise) in OGF, storage, network and server virtualization are all be defined, spec'd and implemented elsewhere. Page 3 insertion in Collaboration grid "and should no be" s/b "and should not be" Page 5 2nd para below Fig 1 "These three parts the requirements" described was deleted.... s/b describe? Page 8 Capabilities table - lots of bookmark errors... I like the addition of Maturity to Table 3. For me it draws into focus the areas that we need to agree upon and areas that need work. I assume that some in OGF would disagree with some of the characterizations of Maturity for some of the capabilities. Further, I assume that even though there is a broad maturity associated with the capability there may be functional gaps in the WG charter or specs referenced. For instance, one could argue that the liberty alliance federated identity handles the Multiple Security infrastructures capability. In fact, I think the heart of the issue we need to wrestle to the ground is that "better is the enemy of good enough". When can we just adopt commercially available techniques and implementations vs when must we define and build from scratch? This undercurrent has been running through GGF/OGF since I have been a participant. We need to use this document as vehicle to get those arguments on the table. To that end, how would someone disagree, how do we empower that discussion and what artifacts do we need to capture from the outcomes....

I have done as much as possible with the time and effort available (mine and other's). The process we agreed to at the F2F is as follows: 1) Between now and next Friday, this document is in "WG Last Call", with the combined forces of the GFSG and the TSC acting as the WG. 2) Please for minor changes send text-only based suggestions in an email to me, but the document should be pretty clean now. 3) Major suggestions for future work should be emailed to me for inclusion in the trackers for later versions. 3) Major objections at your peril. This version is changed tracked, except for the tables 1 and 3, which are all new. Enjoy. -- Take care: Dr. David Snelling < David . Snelling . UK .
