Following up on Dave's email I wanted to say that while we don't want GridPP to end up dominating this meeting I would strongly encourage those who have an interest in working with other communities to come to this. In the end we need to build a shared E-Infrastructure for STFC's science program and I'm keen to make sure that we tap into GridPP's expertise in running a national service.
Best wishes
Andrew

> Apologies for the inevitably late notice, but there is a UKT0 face-2-face
> meeting advertised (see end of mail) that we hope a few members of GridPP
> will be able to attend. This is part of the award we got for “UKT0” late last
> year (primarily for non HEP activities). Since that time we have been
> consumed by making sure the money gets spent in FY, getting important
> cases into BEIS, preparing GridPP Oversight Committee docs, …etc.. which
> means we are a bit behind in the organisation. The context for all of this will
> be explained in detail at
> GridPP40 - and there is lots of news.
>
> The bottom line however is that there is a UKT0 meeting at Cosnors on
> March 14th/15th. Space is limited by the venue capacity so we can't
> accommodate a deluge from GridPP because it is very important to leave
> space for the other communities. But it would be great to have a number of
> GridPP representatives, particularly those with strategic and/or technical
> input, or those directly concerned with supporting other activities, or likely to
> do so in the future. (GridPP will pay normal travel expenses - so comment
> below about expenses being down to the individual should be interpreted as
> "down to GridPP")
>
> So if you would like to attend, then I would ask that you exercise judgement
> in each institute as to who should go. In the first instance, we request just
> one person an institute but there are clearly cases more than one may be
> appropriate: if this then please contact Andrew Sansum to check if there is
> enough space.
