[Swift-devel] maling lists

[Ian Foster]

and of which many people have a very high opinion. I am being lobbied  
by multiple European groups who want Globus to be part of the European  
Grid Initiative, "because it just works" (unlike other grid software  
that they use). The National Institutes of Health is rolling out  
several Globus based grids for the same reason. Etc.

I think we should try not to let personal prejudices get in the way of  
sensible decision making.
