OSG Release Candidate Integration Workshop

Introduction

A face-to-face meeting of OSG integrators, VDT, a few hardy site administrators, and a documentarian for final integration of the OSG "release candidate" for mid-May deployment. The focus of the meeting will be on functionality all services in the release candidate. Note - this will likely be something like ITB 0.1.5, which we will define based on this week's experiences and developments.

• FOLLOW-ON SCHEDULE Week of April 18 we will release the ITB 0.1.5 and begin deployment on all ITB sites, perform validations for services and applications. See RelCanItb015Val.

It is a goal of the workshop to hand over a Release Candidate to Provisioning.
