WP1

After M6 WPs 1-3 of our Project will start to develop prototypes of the applications, tool environment, and the new grid services, while WP4 will be working on launching the 1st testbed.

From our previous experience with deliverables it follows that we should have them ready at least 1 month before deadline given in Annex-1. Our next deliverables will be based on WORKING software, so maybe 2 months are necessary?

The next deliverables are (in very short):

M9

WP4 internal status report

WP5 CrossGrid website

M10

WP4 1st testbed prototype release

M11

WP5 Project leaflet/brochure

WP5 Dissemination and exploitation report

All CrossGrid yearly meeting (conference)

M12

WP1 First software release

WP2 First prototypes

WP3 First prototypes

WP5 Report on requirements on integration and interoperability with DataGrid

WP5 Yearly report

and on M12 we have 1st EU review of our Project!!!

To do this job we need direct contacts between people working on the above listed issues.

CrossGrid Workshop at Linz is the unique opportunity to meet to:

	evaluate the current status of all tasks,
	contact with partners who are developing software we are going to use, to precise intefaces and functionality,
	understand what we may expect as 1st prototypes,
	learn what are plans for the setting up testbeds,
	agree about common rules for software development,
	decide together how we are going to organise the 1st EU review, to distribute obligations,
	talk with DataGrid representative,
	discuss the technology for the future.

The preliminary program is available at:
http://www.gup.uni-linz.ac.at/crossgrid/workshop/

The working materials for the Workshop are:

	deliverables M3 and M6 (available at our www)
	preliminary presentations of prototypes of each WP (it would be great to have them on our www before September 20).

(Please, notice that this time we are not going to print them!)
