GGF Chairs-

 

It's that time again for me to find out which of your groups plan on
attending GGF13 in Korea and which ones do not. Leaders in the
Asia-Pacific region have estimated that we can expect around 500
participants just from their region.   Many of these will be newcomers
while others will be veterans in grid computing, both from research and
from industry.  In either case, Seoul is a great opportunity for your
group to extend its influence and its participation.  Furthermore, GGF
leadership is planning to communicate several of the outcomes of the
strategic activities that are being completed during the 4th quarter.
It will be a meeting you do not want to miss!

 

GGF leadership also realizes that for some of you, traveling to Seoul is
a huge commitment of time and resource for both you and your group
members.  This is one of many challenges of being a Global community.
The secretariat is developing a FAQ sheet that will not only supply you
with costs of attending (airfare, lodging, registration fees, etc.) but
will also give a snapshot of some of the activities you can expect
during the event.  We hope you can use this information to educate your
group members on the value of participating in GGF13.

 

GGF needs your strong leadership in helping get your group volunteers to
be part of what Seoul will have to offer your group. Please take some
time today to initiate with your group concerning participation in the
Seoul meeting.  I would like to have some idea of which groups are
planning to meet in Seoul (and which may not) before the end of the
year, so please respond promptly.  Keep an eye on ggf.org next week for
additional information about the event, including the opening of
advanced registration.

 

Please send me email back with the name of your group and if you plan on
holding a working session or not at GGF13.

 

Thank you,
