[ogsa-wg] [WFM-RG] Workflow Interoperability and Sharing Survey for WFM-RG

[Ian Taylor]

Hi,

Sorry to spam you all again but the workflow management session today  
at 1:45 pm at the OGF.  Do you think you would be able to fill the on- 
line survey about your opinions on workflow interoperability and  
sharing before noon east coast time? The details are below,

thanks for your help,

Ian
