  Discussion 1h 10m
  
  Here are some provocative questions that are seen as relevant for EGI to drive the discussion (please suggest additional questions): - Is the ROC model the appropriate one? This is a very European view, what steps will be taken to include partners from other regions?- Assuming that the ROC model is the right way to go; Why are all ROCs led by European partners? Should these ROCs be hosted in Europe or in the other regions? - Is the level of interaction and scale of deployment equal in each region? - Are the active user communities in each region similar or completely different? - What changes are needed in the CHAIN vision or implementation model? - What is the overlap between March’09 proposals and CHAIN? Key questions for current projects – Are the issues encountered in each region the same? - Kind of issues encountered - User Communities support - Level of interaction/deployment - Current status of interoperability - Collaboration with CIS region: Will this be included? Existing collaboration with CIS countries: Armenia (EGEE, SEE-GRID-SCI), Azerbaijan, Belarus (BalticGrid-II), Georgia (SEE-GRID-SCI), Kazakhstan (EGEE), Kyrgyzstan (?), Moldova (SEE-GRID-SCI), Russia (EGEE), Tajikistan (?), Ukraine (EGEE), Uzbekistan (EGEE)
