Dear OGF work groups and interested parties,

The Open Grid Forum 32 call for session proposals is now available at
the following link. As a reminder, the dates of OGF 32 are July 15-18,
2011, with the last day of OGF 32 overlapping the first day of the
Teragrid 2011 meeting.  Please submit a session request for any group,
BOF or session you would like to see and/or are planning to lead.

We have recently worked out some problems with logistics and are now
able to report that we *WILL* be co-located in the same hotel as the
Teragrid 2011 conference, the Salt Lake City Marriott Downtown:

More information will be forthcoming on the hotel booking code soon.
Meanwhile, we encourage you to explore the links for OGF 32 and to
fill out the call for proposals if you are a group or session leader
or area director, or would like to propose a BOF, workshop or tutorial.

Note also that  Monday, July 18 will be a special "Science Agency Uses
of Clouds and Grids" to focus attention and work on this area. This
workshop will be a follow-on to the successful OGF/USDOE "High
Performance Applications of Clouds and Grids" workshop held in April
2011 and will also serve as a venue to develop formal input to several
ongoing standards and software roadmapping efforts, including the US
National Institute of Science and Technology's Business Use Cases
group and the SIENA Cloud Standards Roadmap effort. International
contributions to this workshop are encouraged and will be accepted.
Project status updates on cloud and grid framework software efforts
and major projects are recruited to be presented at this workshop.
There will be other special tutorials of interest occurring in the
Teragrid 2011 program on the same day.  We invite thorough
participation in the Science Agencies workshop and/or these tutorials.

Special note: The TAGPMA branch of the International Grid Trust
Federation will be meeting at the headquarters of Digicert in Salt
Lake City July 14-15; corresponding CAOps and Cloud Security meetings
will be scheduled at OGF on the 16th or 17th with this schedule in mind.

We apologize for the delay in getting this information to you, but the
logistics -- thought to be settled many months ago -- proved to be
more challenging than we had anticipated and there seem to be many
different events taking place in Salt Lake City during that interval.
