Regional Affiliate BOF (90 mins)
Steve Crumb, Leadership of other Consortia
(Regional Affiliate BOF)  Ad-hoc BOF

As the adoption of Grids around the world continues to grow, regional and national consortia are being established with similar goals and objectives as GGF. As grid continues to grow and evolve over the next few years, a strategy of “affiliation” between GGF and participating, geographically dispersed organizations and consortia needs to be investigated to provide the structural foundation for growth and alignment - enabling our shared mission of pervasive adoption of grid computing worldwide.
Upon urging by the GFAC to develop a ISOC Charter-like program, GGF and key grid consortia from Korea, Japan, and Holland have developed an affiliate program that has gone through a "beta test" with these consortia. During this BOF, an overview of the program and its benefits will be presented, lessons learned during the beta test period discussed, and a recommendation made to adopt the program into GGF's core processes. The BOF will provide an opportunity for the GGF community to express its thoughts about the proposed program, prior to approval.
