Organisational and management issues10m
Is it clear now how CMS fits in to NDGF, organisationally and technically?
Formal resource commitments for the Nordic countries and signing the MoU
NDGF representation in the WLCG Overview Board, and Computing Resource Review Board
Does NDGF feel adequately represented in the various WLCG boards, committees and meetings, and does it feel that it is well enough informed about the activity of the project?
