Confederated conference confusion

Summaries of the data management sessions at last week's OGF, as well as more CHEP discussion, have appeared in the minutes of this week's storage meeting. Meanwhile, there is a HEPiX meeting this week, which will (probably) be discussed at the storage meeting next week - particularly if we can find someone who went to it. Share and Enjoy.

Storage talks at HEPiX

There are lots of storage related presentations at HEPiX today:

Of particular relevance to WLCG are the presentations on dCache, DPM and SRM. There are also talks about data corruption and distributed filesystems (GPFS, Lustre,...).

Should make for some interesting reading.
