Hi *

Given the recent discussions on data management / grid, I thought this might be of interest to many of you:

http://indico.cern.ch/conferenceDisplay.py?confId=20247

usually there is videoconf via evo. Note in particular the following discussion points:

These are the data management (DM) tools we have at present: =============================== 10:45 WLCG high level tools; DPM status and plans; information providers (20') David Smith (CERN) An update on WLCG high level tools (FTS, gfal, lcg-utils), on DPM status, available and recommended releases and on the DPM information providers ==============================

* tools for checking SE-LFC synchronisation (this is what Silvia brought up last mtng)

============

StoRM status and new release (we are looking into a pilot project with Storm)

and then from 14:00 to 18:00 a whole session on Tier-1 services with dCache, extremely relevant for our site.
