GGF2 - The Second Global Grid Forum
July 15 - 18, 2001
Vienna, Virginia, USA
(in the Washington, DC area)
Sheraton Premiere at Tysons Corner
GGF-2 was the first workshop held in the US following
the formation of Global Grid Forum in October 2000. GGF-2 had roughly
350 participants from over 20 countries and over 150 organizations.
Over 40 document drafts were discussed at GGF-2, including a draft
outlining an official GGF document series process.
