Dear OGF working and community groups,

We have been asked to pass on that Early-Bird Registration has been extended to 16 February for the ISGC 2015 conference coming up soon in Taipei. Many activities of interest to the OGF community will take place at this conference, including (we believe) a CAOPS working group meeting.

Please also note that OGF 43 is scheduled to take place the following week in the Washington DC area in conjunction with the GENI Engineering Conference, US Ignite and GLIF meetings, and early registration ends March 1 for that event. For further details please see the “Events” page on the OGF web site, http://www.ogf.org. If you have to miss that event, we hope those of you in or who can conveniently travel to the US will take advantage of the Open Science Grid all-hands meeting to take place that same week at Northwestern University. Registration is available for that event at http://sites.northwestern.edu/osg-ahm2015/register/ and is scheduled to close March 9.

Note also that registration is also already open for the EGI spring conference to include OGF 44 the week of 18-22 May 2015 in Lisbon. Please see the details on the EGI web site at http://www.egi.eu for more information.

All told, there are several opportunities taking place at various places throughout the globe for you to interact with your OGF colleagues and relevant portions of the community this spring.
