Description

In order to truly allow interoperability among multiple control frameworks and aggregates, GENI requires a common language for describing resources, resource requests, and reservations - a single, well defined RSpec schema. The community will discuss progress on adopting common ontologies for GENI resources, and making aggregates speak ProtoGENI V2 RSpecs as the GENI Rspec format.
