Hrabri:
I would think that the job submission thing we need is almost completely
trivial, as noted in earlier emails on ogsa-wg at ggf.org: it is basically a
"create" call, with a JSDL string; the (also very simple) WSRF mechanisms
then address the few other functions needed. The complexities all live in
the JSDL, not the WSDL.
On the API side, I'd strongly encourage the SAGA guys to look at the GT4
GRAM API, as it is makes it easy to do simple things, while also addressing
many other things like staging, delegation, etc. See
http://www-unix.globus.org/toolkit/docs/development/4.0-drafts/execution/wsgram/user/globusrun-ws.html.

Would<br>
SAGA-RG people like to engage OGSA EMC and possibly co-sponsor a
Simple<br>
job submission WG? This could be a nice opportunity to tie in
the<br>
classic API and the WSDL approach.<br><br>
One thing to consider: Do we really need APIs in SRM, APME, and now
