I'm terribly sorry to have to send another note about this, but...
The date of this workshop is Tuesday, FEBRUARY 28, not January 28.
Shamefacedly,
Lee

To: All members of the Globus community
The program committee for the 22nd Open Grid Forum (OGF22) has
provided space in the program for a series of presentations by past
and current Globus users to relate what they have experienced,
accomplished, and learned while using Globus software. In
particular, there's great interest in hearing stories about why you
decided to try Globus software, what benefits you hoped to obtain by
using it, what you found in practice, and what it all resulted in
from *your* perspective.
The workshop will be held in the afternoon on Tuesday, January 28,
at OGF22 in Cambridge, MA. (See http://www.ogf.org/OGF22/ for more
about OGF22.) Note that this is early in the week, so it can be a
great way to find people you'll want to follow up with later on in
the meetings.
**************
With co-organizers Stuart Martin and Ravi Madduri, I am excited to
invite you to sign up for a presentation slot! We are aiming for
30min presentations, focused on the goals that were relevant to your
use of Globus software (what were you trying to accomplish?) and
your results. Please send your presentation idea(s) to me, <[EMAIL PROTECTED]
>. Please be sure to identify the work that you are engaged in
(e.g., "developing a data repository for ecological observations" or
"implementing a collaboration framework for students") in addition
to any relevant project names. Also, if you have scheduling
constraints (other things you need to do that afternoon) let me know
so we can consider them when building the schedule.
**************
If you are already registered for OGF22, this will be a great
"bonus" opportunity to have some floor time to introduce yourself
and your work to other members of the Grid community. I hope you'll
take this opportunity to share your experience, to meet other Globus
software users, or just to listen and learn about what others have
been doing with Globus software.
If you are not already planning to be at OGF22, I will simply
encourage you to consider a trip to Cambridge MA anyway. OGF
meetings are a great way to encounter other members of the Grid
community, find people with similar interests and challenges, and
identify new possibilities for collaboration and community
building. You do not need to be working in a standards group to get
a lot out of an OGF meeting! (Single day registration is available
at a reasonable price.) The program and accommodation information
are available athttp://www.ogf.org/OGF22/.
I look forward to seeing you at OGF22, and hope that you will
consider presenting your work during this special workshop.
Sincerely,
Lee Liming
