We're planning an FTS workshop for Wednesday 16 November to review the current status of FTS from the point of view of the experiments. The focus is on the overall service and its use by the experiment frameworks.
The intended participants are the developers of the experiment software frameworks, particularly those who have been working with the FTS over the last few months.
What's the current status of your integration with it? How is it being used? What limitations and problems do you currently see with it? Given your current and future plans what are the missing features? The result of this workshop should drive our work plan.
