Alexander,

If you include "the other 2 grids" for every one of the 3 grids, you'd
actually create a loop (A polls B which polls A and so forth).

I think what you'd really like is to setup a top-level gmetad which
polls all 3 regional gmetads. This way you could drill down into the
relevant region.


Cheers,

Alex
