 <<Call4API-Standardization.ppt>>  <<ATT2816685.htm>>  <<ATT2816686.txt>> 
Here is a set of slides that mention the objective to have a API of GFS.  

The API would be abstract (not specific to any language bindings).   The proposed abstract API would state all the functions (or methods), their operands and return values. I hope this community effort helps both software implementers and users of GFS/data grids.  This approach would allow any data management or data movement protocol to be used behind the scene (no need for us to be concerned about the binary protocol). 

We could discuss this over email and also on the tele-conference next week - 8/14/07, Tuesday 4:30 PM Pacific time.

Cheers,
Arun
