All, One of the topics for our upcoming Board-of-Directors (BoD) and Advisory Committee (ADCOM) meetings during Supercomputer (Wed, Nov 15th) is the Technical Strategy and Roadmap document. If possible, I would like to be able to engage BoD and ADCOM members to give us feedback and suggestions regarding the contents of the document - even at this early stage. Dave has also agree to present a 1/2 hour status update during our meetings via con-call. I think this is a great opportunity to get some early feedback on our efforts as we mature the contents through the rest of this year and look to publish our first version for public comment during late January leading up to OGF19. As you continue your discussions and contributions to the document, please keep these timeframes in mind. I would like to have Dave send a personal copy of the document to each BoD and ADCOM member with a request to read and provide feedback to the TSC. Dave probably needs to send this the Friday before SC06 or Friday, November 10th so that we can provide our BoD and ADCOM members the appropriate "travel reading material" :-) Thanks for your efforts on behalf of OGF and our members, Mark Mark Linesch: Open Grid Forum (OGF): Hewlett Packard 281-514-0322 (Tel): 281-414-7082 (Cell) mark.linesch@hp.com : linesch@ogf.org
