[occi-wg] Special Session about OCCI at Closer 2016

Sat Mar 19 03:41:09 EDT 2016

The Closer secretariat confirms the availability of the same room used for
the special session until 19:00, so that we have one additional hour for an
OGF-labelled session. This way we facilitate the attendance of people
interested though not directly involved in OCCI. I'd concentrate in this
time slot the discussions and briefs that are not too technical, and that
give a perspective of OCCI activity. We can arrange a further (or even
preliminary) meeting to discuss more technical issues: I guess we have
plenty of places where to meet, and in case I'll ask for further
availability to Closer.

As for financial issues, the secretariat pointed out that the participants
need to register to the main conference. No words about a financial
participation of OGF. I asked if this was appropriate, but the reply was
that the participants need to register, nothing else. So, if OGF wants to
help the participants...

In the next week we will try to finalize the agenda using the info provided
by Jean, Boris, and by all those that have not yet replied. I'd like to
have a word about that from Andy and Thijs.
