To me it is ready as it is (on demand model defined and agreement of potential participation with EGI) , should we submit it? - On the other hand we could pre-install some spare virtual boxes ready for a testing campaign. • DESY participation issue: error in the EMI DOW. Any feedback by Patrick? + Steps Next Week • MS23.
