[ghpn-wg] Preliminary GGF15 agenda

[Franco Travostino]

Given what I currently know of the Drafts, I'm still debating whether 
we should be reserving one or two 90' sessions.  I kindly request the 
Draft Editors and Authors to flag me whether they expect to a) have a 
new draft issued and/or b) plan to make it to Boston to present their 
material. Point a) is not necessarily a pre-requisite for b). Given 
that in Chicago I presented most of their material, it's quite likely 
that I didn't do justice to the strong production (1 new draft, 2 
draft revisions) that we had back then --- an expanded re-run might 
be quite useful.

As usual, the last ~30 minutes are reserved for short presentations 
on efforts with GHPN relevance and within GHPN scope --- e.g., new 
initiatives, draft proposals, ideas for new RG/WGs, specific Grid 
network services. If you wish to present, please send an abstract of 
your material to the chairs and/or this list before August 31st.

In addition to the regular GHPN program, I want to call your 
attention to two events of relevance to this community:
    * a 60' lecture on Provisioning & Managing a Switching 
Infrastructure as a Grid Resource, by Yaron Haviv, Voltaire, 
tentatively scheduled for Wednesday October 5th as part of the 
Community Program;
    * the 2nd IEEE/Create-Net GridNets 2005 workshop on October 6-7 
in Boston (http://gridnets.org/2005/). GridNets is a forum for 
peer-reviewed research papers on networks for Grid applications. This 
event is NOT associated with GGF. Same city but different venue, 
different dates (albeit adjacent dates), and different admission fee 
structure.
