> Dear all,

> Thanks for attending the Interoperability Fests BoF at GGF16.
> This is to bring you up to date with follow-on activities.
> 
> A GGF mailing list, interop-bof at ggf.org, has been set up.
> You are invited to subscribe. We have NOT subscribed you 
> automatically. It's a standard majordomo list: send mail to 
> majordomo at ggf.org with the body "subscribe interop-bof".
> 
> Please do not spam each other. All follow up discussions 
> should take place on the list.
> 
> I anticipate this list being used for several purposes, 
> including, but not limited to, the following:
> - to provide a community self-help list for issues relating
>   to interoperability testing, especially in the context of
>   GGF standards development.
> - to act as a forum for determining whether there is a real
>   need for some kind of interoperability group in GGF, and if
>   so, decide what it should do, produce a draft charter, and
>   find volunteers willing to drive it forward.
> - to decide whether to hold another ad hoc BoF at GGF17, and,
>   if so, what should be on the agenda. There are still meeting
>   rooms available in Tokyo, but we'd need to move quickly.
> 
> There is a gridforge project called "interop-bof" at:
>   https://forge.gridforum.org/projects/interop-bof/  
> 
> Presentations from the GGF16 BoF are available at:
>   http://www.ggf.org/gf/event_schedule/index.php?id=212
> 
> The DAIS-WG has written a document entitled "Interoperability 
> Testing for DAIS Working Group Specifications"
> describing their planned approach to interoperability testing.
> It is now in public comment. You can view it and make
