[ogsa-wg] Proposed (DRAFT) Agenda for Basic EM BOF

[Ian Foster]

Steven:

We *have* raised the issue of the name of OGSA RUS before, I believe, but 
it didn't seem worth making a fuss over. Here, as we are starting from 
scratch, we have the opportunity to do things right.

Yes, approved as part of a profile: as discussed at some length, that's how 
OGSA-WG proposes to proceed to define "OGSA" in a normative sense, via 
profiles.

Ian.
