[NM-WG] nm-wg at OGF20, next week

[Leese, MJ (Mark)]

Hi folks,

OGF20 is being held next week (May 7-11) in Manchester, UK. NM-WG are holding three sessions, all on Tuesday 8th. The first is mostly for update talks to help identify the outstanding issues, which will be discussed in the second session. We also have talks from two European projects who are potential schemas users: CoreGRID and edutain at grid. The final session is for outreach to the wider OGF community. The full agenda is somewhere below.

I ordered a phone line for the first two sessions, but given the times we have...
  #1 starts at 10:30 UK, 06:30 Eastern Daylight Time, 03:30 Pacific Daylight Time
  #2 starts at 14:00 UK, 09:00 EDT, 06:00 PDT
...I won't set up a conference call unless someone asks me to.

If you can make it...great, see you there.

If you can't...
- Please email me any issues that you'd like discussed
- Martin and Jason hope to soon circulate a new version of a schema document first seen at GGF19 (http://anonsvn.internet2.edu/svn/nmwg/trunk/nmwg/doc/nm-schema-base/nm-schema-base.html). This will also be discussed, so please email me/Martin/Jason any comments on the new version
- There will be notes

Finally, a quick advert for the Network Mark-up Language-WG's session on Wednesday 9th, 10:30-12:00. This is the group chaired by Martin and Paula Grosso, looking to facilitate development of a standardised network description ontology and schema.

Hope you're all well,
Cheers,

Mark.
