Re: [nvrg-bof] poll on charter focus - RESPONSES DUE OCT 23



Let me be a bit of a naysayer here about this entire effort. This list
was set up more than a year ago, and still seems to be in the earliest
stages of figuring out what, if anything to do. That is not a good sign...

Meanwhile, virtualization (and cloud computing) continues to be a very
hot topic in many places, including:

  - DMTF (OVF, Virtualization Management Forum)
  - OGF Open Cloud Computing Interface WG (OCCI-WG)

Not to mention all the work various vendors are doing.

It seems to me like this group is pretty detached from all the related
work that is going on, and based on the pace of progress so far,
doesn't really have a critical mass to do anything.

What am I missing?

(I'm not necessarily opposed to a WG being formed, but I don't see the
point in bothering if the group isn't actually going to produce
anything useful...)
