[wg-all] Fwd: NIST Cloud Computing Standards Roadmap Working Group (CCSRWG) - conference call

[Alan Sill]

Dear OGF colleagues,

The NIST Cloud Standards Roadmap group, one of several subgroups of  
the NIST cloud computing effort, is restarting as of this Thursday.   
The goal is to move to a new phase emphasizing community-developed  
priority action plans ("PAPs") to set future directions for this effort.

The agenda for the next meeting is described below.  Also included are  
instructions on how to join the associated e-mail list and add topics  
to the agenda.

In addition to this group, there are several others that might be of  
interest to the OGF community.  In particular, there is an effort that  
meets Fridays, late in the day (unfortunately for our European  
colleagues) that is focused on federated infrastructure considerations  
for clouds, that has requested specific input from the grid community  
regarding its past and current efforts in federated distributed  
computing infrastructures.  If you are interested in that group also,  
please let me know or look up the information on the NIST TWiki under  
the Reference Architecture group on it or on any other associated  
groups of interest.

For now, I'd like to call your attention to the Standards Roadmap  
group and invite community participation and input.  My own role as a  
participant in some of these work groups has made me very aware of the  
value of community participation and input in roadmap efforts of this  
type worldwide, and I would like to invite your participation also.

The NIST TWiki that describes their efforts to date is available  
online at

    http://collaborate.nist.gov/twiki-cloud-computing/bin/view/CloudComputing/

This site also contains notes and minutes of previous meetings, for  
your reference.  I would especially appreciate involvement from the  
community in the standards roadmap, standards testing (SAJACC) and  
reference architecture groups; participation in the security, business  
use cases and other NIST groups might also be of interest to you or  
your organization.

There are equivalent roadmapping efforts going on throughout the world  
that are of equal interest; if you know of any that are open to OGF  
community input, I'm sure we would all appreciate knowing details  
regarding how to contribute.

Of course, these and our own community's response to these challenges  
will be discussed in detail at various sessions of the upcoming OGF 34  
conference, registration for which is already open at

     http://ogf.org/OGF34/registration.php

and the call for session proposals is still open at

     http://ogf.org/OGF34/cfp.php

Yours,

Alan Sill
VP of Standards, OGF
