    • a. Assist research groups in connecting and leveraging their content manag systems with the grid -- I'm honestly not sure how valuable this is on its own. GridSphere is just one of many content management systems. I think we need to tie this to a specific effort to build a web-based workflow management application for a group. In that case GridSphere may or may not be the right choice (an existing community could be using it or initerested in adopting it). Our work with SSG has always been seen as possibly leading to the use of GridSphere but I don't know if that would come about in 2009.
