[ogsa-rss-wg] First hack at slides for F2F

[Soonwook Hwang]

The question (3) is interesting to me as well.
Mathias, what do you have in mind
dynamic information that EPS may want to retrieve
by interacting with the IS? Could the dynamic information 
not be retrieved by CSG from the IS for locating
candidate resources that fit the job's resource 
requirements? I am just wondering what kind of dynamic
information is there that EPS might need rather than 
CSG.

I've not stated how the bits and pieces find out about each other.
Indeed, that's a part of the architecture that we've not touched on yet.

Thanks.

Perhaps. I've instead been thinking about a model where the EPS does not
interact with the IS directly. This is going to be an interesting topic
of discussion I feel. :^)

I couldn't find the template. I've found something though (including the
IP statement) so that's incorporated now.

See the updated version attached.
