Frank,
  I did not mean to imply that I disapproved of your internal mailing
list. It was just when I saw it in the CC list and not ogsa-sec-wg I
wondered if I had subscribed to the wrong list.

Now that I look more carefully at the cc fields, I see that you have
been cross-posting to ogsa-sec-wg, which I think is the right way to get
to ogsa subjects gradually moved on to that mailing list. There has been
so much mail lately that I very quickly delete the duplicates so when I
looked at my archives it was mostly all under security-wg.

I agree with you here, I was just trying to figure out what the forum
was for the ogsa specific discussion and I believe that you have
answered that.

I sorry if my mail suggested a cover-up. I do think the whole OGSA team
has tried to be as open as possible, while at the same time making
forward progress.
