Dave,
While it is fresh in my mind, we may want to have the standards
concertation
group led by Phillip Wieder and Wolfgang Ziegler organize the "standards
meets user" session. I was at their group meeting in Brussels last week
during the European Grid Days and their charter seems very clear to
support
the standardization activities of the EC-funded grid projects (at least
from
the Research side). Mark Parsons was in the same meeting and might
support
this idea (or have a better one).
Thanks,
Steve Crumb

Let me add some background about the overall shape of the event. The
plan
is to have OGF20 running from Mon-Wed and the colocated EGEE User Forum
from
Wed-Fri. Therefore the Wednesday will be an overlap day, which will
require
careful planning between the OGF & EGEE. I envisage the industry track
running primarily on Monday & Tuesday, but we can of course make
suggestions
for the Wednesday if we think it appropriate.
One suggestion made at GGF18 was that the PC should arrange a session on
Wednesday on "standards meet users", bringing together people working on
standards with users of EGEE and other Grids. This seems to fit nicely
with
John's suggestion. Perhaps we could have a similar session on Tuesday
aimed
primarily at industry users and feed the results into the Wednesday
session?
I believe Mark Parsons has been tasked with encouraging EU projects to
be
involved in the industry track. I believe his remit covers NESSI,
BeInGrid
and NextGrid as well as EGEE. Mark is on this committee and can join
the
call on the 6th.
We do need to consider our audience. Many of us already in the Grid
community have heard some of the stories before, although there are new
projects coming on stream now. I'd like to encourage new people along
to at
least one day of the event. It will have been 5 years since the last
GGF/OGF in the UK, so I would hope that we could get people along who
haven't been before. We need to think how to accommodate them alongside
more regular attenders.
Best wishes,
Dave.
