Hi all,

Minutes and slide materials used in GGF14 GFS-WG sessions are now
available on GridForge.

This time is the last chance to comment RNS specification before
submitting it to the editor.  We encourage all of you to read the
document through.

Here are comments from our group.

* Both "SetMultipleResourceProperties" in paragraph 3 in Section
  1.2.1, and "SetResourceProperty" in paragraph 4 in Section 1.2.1
  should be "SetResourceProperties"?

* endOfList in QueryResponce is not used by lookup operation.
  minOccurs of endOfList should be 0 instead of 1?

* Is a wite space ' ' a non-readable characters in Section 1.1.3.2.2?

* TargetPath in Reference Properties is now an absolute path that can
  span multiple RNSs.  This means a TargetPath can be changed when one
  of the parent virtual directories is moved.  When an RNS does not
  have capability to update TargetPath property, it is not allowed to
  move one of the parent virtual directories even though AliasCount of
  the moved entry is zero.

  Even when an RNS has the capability, how to compute the new
  TargetPath is a problem.  Usually the absolute path can be computed
  by going up to the root, on the other hand, since there is no
  backward link for a referral junction, it is not possible, isn't it?

  This problem can be solved by using a relative path in TargetPath,
  since it should be within an RNS.

Thanks,
Osamu
