Hi Sergio,

Thanks for integrating our requirements into the new GLUE 2.0 spec. What you
have in the draft will work for us now.

The only thing I want to comment on is the ComputingShare's relationship
with the ComputingResource and ComputingService entities. If a
ComputingShare is an abstraction of a queue and the ComputingElement is an
abstraction of the Batch System, then there should be a direct association
between the ComputingShare and the ComputingElement. Having the
ComputingShare linked to the ComputingService will introduce a number of
replicated instances of the same ComputingShare on all the ComputingServices
which is not really necessary. Attached is the diagram again to refresh your
memory on what I think it should look like. Anyway, just my 2 cents..

Cheers,
Gerson
