[glue-wg] Adopting a GLUE2 XML Schema?

Hi Warren,

I found your GLUE2 xml schema at
http://software.teragrid.org/pacman/ctss4/glue2/glue2-1.0.0-r1/teragrid_glue_2.0_r01.xsd.
Is this the latest one? Are there some xml data using this schema?

How is the deployment of your schema in TeraGrid? Is it used by
TeraGrid information service to describe resources across TeraGrid?
Many thanks in advance!

Cheers,

Weijian
