[ogsa-rss-bof] Strawmen...

[Philipp Wieder]

Hi,

first of all thank you for the valuable input to the GSA-RG. I will 
submit my comments with respect to the document asap.

Concerning the GSA use case document and the integration of the Catalana 
use case, I hope to finalise the document within one week from now, 
which will give us a more consolidated view and will help to finalise 
our document.

Best regards, Philipp.
