[wg-all] Fwd: XSEDE15: Registration now open and request for future hosting opportunities for OGF events

[Sill, Alan]

Dear OGF colleagues,

We look forward to seeing as many of you as possible at OGF 44, coming up May 21-22 at the EGI Conference taking place that entire week (May 18-22) in Lisbon, Portugal. This will be a dynamic, active event engaging with the EGI community and will include a Cloud Plugfest.

Looking ahead, there will be opportunities for OGF group to meet at several upcoming events of interest, including XSEDE 2015 July 26-30 in St. Louis (USA) and at other locations in the summer/fall/winter 2015 time frame. For example, we had successful Cloud Plugfest and OGF group meetings at the FAS*/CAC conference inLondon in September 2014, which will be held in Boston this year also in September, and have been invited to do similar activities at the UCC 2015 conference in Cyprus in December 2015, and the OGF NSI group is planning to meet with GLIF at their meeting at the end of September 2015 in Prague.

As a short-term action item, you please respond either directly to me or to events at ogf.org<mailto:events at ogf.org> if there is interest by your group in meeting at any or all of the events mentioned above?

Suggestions or proposals to host a full OGF event beyond OGF 44 would also be appreciated. Please volunteer, or express your interest.

Thanks very much,

Alan Sill
