The first of these will take place on Thursday, June 22nd 15:00 UTC (8:00 PDT, 17:00 CEST).</div><div><br></div><div>As these telecons were initially motivated to share ideas about containers (docker, etc...) and VOSpace implementations, these will be the two general areas of discussion for this first telecon. Other GWS related topics, such as federated authentication (also a hot topic lately), are certainly welcome.</div><div><br></div><div>I suggest, for this first meeting, we follow this format:</div><div><br></div><div> o We first cycle through each participant, who can, optionally:</div><div> - Provide a brief update of GWS related activities</div><div> - Add items to the agenda</div><div> o We go through each of the proposed agenda items, fixing the time for each based on the number of items and time remaining in the hour.</div><div> o We make plans for the next telecon.</div><div><br></div><div>The meeting will use the "Vidyo" video conferencing system.
