Munich, 26-27 Feb 2007 EGI Workshop - NGI Status Report 2 Introduction Countries reported on the state of their NGI & views of an EGI NGI questionnaire conducted during summer 2006 These are preliminary findings, and cannot replace interactive exchange of information 30 countries replied; near unanimity on forming an EGI Full report is being published now: https://edms.cern.ch/document/804043/1/EGEE-II-NA5-DNA5.1- 804043-v3.doc

Munich, 26-27 Feb 2007 EGI Workshop - NGI Status Report 36 Other Functions / Stakeholders Other proposed functions of EGI - some brief quotes: Cross country efforts / collaboration between NGIs; Service for major new infrastructures (ESFRI); Relationship with e.g. GEANT/DANTE; Provision of guidelines / specification of cleaner & more atomic interfaces Political support for NGIs / unified interface to EU bodies; Establish a “business” scheme (tokens to use facilities); See handout Table 4 Other stakeholders besides proposed set (NGIs, user communities, EC) - some brief quotes: The research community; e-IRG; possibly CERN; National funding agencies / Ministries See handout Table 5 Part A
37
Munich, 26-27 Feb 2007 EGI Workshop - NGI Status Report 37 Conclusions & Next Steps Commonality of vision with respect to EGI Move beyond questionnaire format Interactive knowledge base NGI definition vs. actual status Sustainability: a work in progress 22 application areas (at least) NGIs are coming together as we speak the time is right for EGI
