Open Stack

“SCIENTIFIC-WG” sounds good and is well representing.

In addition, it doesn’t collide with any of the other woking groups.

Excellent discussion + votes, thank you Tim, Jonathan, Stig an Stefano.

SCIENTIFIC-WG seems very reasonable to me.

Are there any objections?

Going once...

I also would not have any objection to SCIENTIFIC if this is the consensus (but I'd drop a note to Fermilab to explain the context, i.e. it is not an OpenStack on Scientific Linux distro).

The other benefit of SCIENTIFIC is that there are a number of companies doing clouds (such as in Life Sciences) who would be interested in the working group but would not consider themselves ACADEMIA.
