Re: [gt-user] Globus Toolkit Series 5 (GT5) Plans
Hi Benjamin, Ian explained this in his Oct 21 email: http://lists.globus.org/pipermail/gt-user/2009-October/008578.html ... Note that GT5 will not include Java Core. Instead, we will continue to support GT4 Java Core, and will work with our users to migrate GT4 Java Core services to Crux when it becomes available. As far as GRAM goes... ... We will continue to support GRAM4 at least through December 2010 (perhaps longer, depending upon demand and funding), but have begun to assist GRAM4 users in migrating to GRAM5. If you are an existing GRAM4 user and would like to discuss migration issues to GRAM5, please contact us. Hope this helps makes things clear. Ask away if it doesn't, or if you have other specific questions/concerns. -Stu On Nov 11, 2009, at Nov 11, 9:50 AM, Benjamin Henne wrote: Hi Stuart, At 08.10.09 21:37, Stuart Martin wrote: The components in GT5 will be GridFTP, GRAM5 (greatly enhanced version of GRAM2), GSI-OpenSSH, MyProxy and RLS, along with the various supporting libraries that these components use.

Re: [gt-user] Globus Toolkit Series 5 (GT5) Plans
Perhaps in a future release. It does not look like that will be ready in time for GT 5.0.0. It could be added in the GT 5.0.x series though when it becomes available. -Stu On Oct 9, 2009, at Oct 9, 7:37 AM, Silvio Costa wrote: Hi Stuart, Recently I read about a new command globus-url-sync that will be used to synchronze files using GridFTP in a similar way to rsync.

[gt-user] Globus Toolkit Series 5 (GT5) Plans
Hi All, We have been planning and preparing a Globus Toolkit version 5.0 release. More detailed information will be coming soon regarding Globus plans resulting from the feedback to Ian's previous email asking for help in shaping Globus' future (http://www.mail-archive.com/gt-user@lists.globus.org/msg00927.html ). But for now, I want to let you know about our plans and schedule for the GT5 release. The components in GT5 will be GridFTP, GRAM5 (greatly enhanced version of GRAM2), GSI-OpenSSH, MyProxy and RLS, along with the various supporting libraries that these components use. The GT4 Web Services components are not included in GT5, including WS GRAM (aka GRAM4), RFT, Delegation, Java WS Core, C WS core components. (Of course, we will continue to support and maintain these GT4 Web Services components.) This reduction in number of components and overall build dependencies should allow us to more easily coordinate and create this release than past GT releases. We are hoping to release GT 5.0.0 in early November. The current schedule is: Oct 16 Code Freeze Oct 19 - 30 Release Candidate creation, testing, doc Nov 2 Announce GT 5.0.0 Questions and feedback welcome. Regards, Stu Martin
