Description

This is a face-to-face meeting of the 'Technology Study for CTA' EGI Virtual Team project: https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/VT_Technology_study_for_CTA.
The face to face meeting is co-located with EGI CF 13 which takes place at the University of Manchester.
This face to face meeting marks the end of the first half of the CTA VT (7 April 2013).
The key topic of the meeting is the status of the CTA SGs and SSO requirements document, to check its completeness and the necessary actions to do in order to have it complete.
A new version of the document produced on the basis of new requirements provided by the CTA members of the VT will be issued during the first week of April.
Only after the completion of the requirements document with a full picture of the end users needs, activities of task 3 will be planned (the mapping of requirements to existing solutions).
Claudio Vuerli will chair the meeting with support by Gergely Sipos and Richard McLennan (EGI.eu).

It will be possible to participate remotely to the meeting via webex. The webex connection details are at the foot of this page. Please also ensure you have read all the included briefing material (if there is any, it is linked to the bottom of the agenda page).
