That is likely true.  Also, it seems unlikely that we get a set of
resources which are accessible by all implementation groups.

The most sensible (and also easiest) way forward would then be,
IMHO, that each group is preparing their own set of demos, against
the set of backends they use anyway, and we run one demo after the
other, presentation style.

For some backends we could also consider to set up a demo resource
via AWS, bu preparing an image which runs globus, glite, etc.  But
the effort for that is hart to estimate (for me).  Is there a
need/use for that?  Any volonteers who could help with setup?

Best, Andre.
