Further ideas for DRMAA logo should be posted and discussed
via group email list.

Discussed that a DRMAA Branding effort might help with ISV
adoption, but is fundamentally a marketing task for which
we have no owner.

>	- Additional DRMAA documents

Rough consensus that C-binding and Java-binding docs
should be introduced into 'Recommended' Document Track
(as opposed to 'Informational').

>	- SC'07

As per OGF-21 drmaa session, we are expecting
Platform Computing to make an announcement with
respect to DRMAA support.

After SC'07, the drmaa-wg will need to consider how
to proceed.
What featureSet would be sufficient for a "next release" ?
Is modular,incremental progress a possibility ... need
to consider that we need to gain experience with features.
We have Trackers for some proposed features,
need to encourage other proposals.
