[drmaa-wg] New GridForge

['Andre Merzky']

Hi Hrabri, 

the entry page cannot be customized directly, as the data on
it are pulled from a data base.  You can extend/change these
infos in the database however, as I said below:  for that,
you can use the tools from the 'living charter' project
which Joel created. 

Joel, could you forward Hrabri the links to the tools?  I
did not bookmark them *blush*

That sounds more complicated then a wiki entry page, we
know.  The motivation is:

  - to provide a uniform entry page
  - to have the important group info (charter, milestones,
    chair infos etc) available in a data base, to allow for
    consistent usage in various places, and for the GGF
    roadmap etc.
  - ADs and chairs etc are supposed to be able to check for
    milestones and progress by querying the data base

Cheers, Andre.
