Please note that the IEEE/ACM UCC and BDCAT conferences are to be held in Zurich, Switzerland this coming December (17-20), and this could be a useful location and venue for ongoing OGF meetings. Please let us know of any groups that would like to meet, and we will try to arrange some rooms. Groups that could usefully meet include GLUE, DFDL, NSI, OCCI, and others. Contact your area directors or send a message to standards@ogf.org<mailto:standards@ogf.org> or president@ogf.org<mailto:president@ogf.org>.
