Cool Lee, thanks much. I know what I need to now, I'll poke you, lisa, and
bob for state as time marches on towards SC.
Thanks,

> Deliverables due in 3 months:
>
> --Written documentation (in *simple* form) describing the
> Globus Toolkit Win32 development environment that enables
> developers to reproduce the environment on a new system,
> including all software tools, configuration settings, and
> build-specific data. This development environment must
> utilize Globus Toolkit source code from existing CVS
> repositories as the starting point for software builds.
>
> --Modified GSI code in the Globus Toolkit CVS archives that
> includes support for Win32 as well as currently-supported
> platforms. (Note that GSI includes both libraries and utility
> tools such as grid-proxy-init.)
>
> --A new Globus Toolkit distribution (with minimal packaging)
> for Win32 that includes at a minimum the Globus "Common"
> libraries, GSI libraries and tools, Globus I/O libraries, and
> GRAM client libraries. (Note that Globus "Common", Globus
> I/O, and GRAM client libraries have already been ported and
> tested in previous work.)
>
> Deliverables due in 6 months:
>
> --An updated version of the first deliverable ("written
> documentation") listed above, reflecting any changes to the
> development environment that have been made. (If no changes
> have been made, the first copy of the documentation may be
> resubmitted.)
>
> --Training for 2+ DSL staff members (DSL has the
> responsibility to identify these individuals) in building,
> testing, and packaging the Globus Toolkit for distribution on
> the Win32 platform
>
> --(optional) Training for all DSL software developers on how
> to write code on Unix that is easily portable to Windows.
> (This is not required, but may be useful to the contractor in
> minimizing new work due to other concurrent development efforts.)
>
> --Modified Globus Toolkit build procedure on Win32 that
> produces Win32 DLLs (Dynamically-linked libraries) (*)
>
> --Modified Globus XIO code in the Globus Toolkit CVS archives
> that includes support for Win32 as well as
> currently-supported platforms (**)
>
> --Modified version of new Globus I/O code based on Globus XIO
> in the Globus Toolkit CVS archives that includes support for
> Win32 as well as currently-supported platforms (**)
>
> --Modified GridFTP code in the Globus Toolkit CVS archives
> that includes support for Win32 as well as
> currently-supported platforms. (Note that GridFTP includes
> libraries, utility tools such as globus-url-copy, and a new
> GridFTP server based on Globus XIO.) (*)(**)
>
> --A new Globus Toolkit distribution for Win32 that includes
> Globus "Common" libraries, GSI libraries and tools, Globus
> XIO libraries, new Globus I/O library (described above), GRAM
> client libraries, GridFTP libraries, tools, and server.
> NOTE: If any of these items are not completed by the end of
> the contract period, they need not be included in this distribution.
