Hi Andy: The NMI (http://www.nsf-middleware.org/) currently at rev 3 uses Globus 2.2.4. 3.0 has been promised, and should be out "real soon now." What Globus 3 gives you is OGSA compliance among other things. See http://www.globus.org/toolkit/gt3-faq.html#Migration%20from%20GT2%20to%20GT3 for more details on the differences. I suspect that more important than Globus will be the full NMI suite.

We've been told that we should be reading up on version 3 because it simply makes no sense to commit to anything based on 2. > >Later, > >Andy > >------------- >Yada, yada, yada... > >The information contained in this e-mail (including any attachments) is confidential and is intended for the use of the addressee only.
