[ogsa-hpcp-wg] SC06 Demo Questions/Info

[Steven Newhouse]

Three comments:
* Job Manager is more specific than resource manager - and would mean 
more IMHO to the target community.
* The HPCProfile working group is driving the demo... but it is building 
heavily on the work of the BES & JSDL working groups and its _very_ 
disappointing that this work and previous effort is not acknowledged.
* There are many more groups involved - OMII-UK, EGEE, CROWN, GT4,...

>> * web services based protocol for accessing and querying computing resources
>> * uses SOAP over HTTP, so is programming language independent
>> * participants include Microsoft, University of Virginia, Fujitsu and HP
