Re: [AG-TECH] How to post?

["Thomas D. Uram" <turam@mcs.anl.gov>]

Hi Jeff:

You've successfully posted to the ag-tech mailing list.  Your earlier 
mail may not have gotten through, if you posted before you subscribed.

Now that you're on the list, you will see that there is much successful 
use of the Access Grid.  A google search would also convince you of that.

The AG community does lack a current equipment list, mostly because such 
a list is difficult to maintain when the hardware changes so quickly. 
The Hardware Specification on accessgrid.org/agdp will tell you what 
components are needed, though the specific hardware references are out 
of date.  I have had some discussions recently about having the 
community maintain a hardware list, but that will take some time.  For 
now, you can get many of the answers you need by looking through the 
mailing list archives, asking new questions where necessary.  Also, I've 
had several discussions with the folks over at the Institute for 
Theoretical Sciences at Notre Dame lately, while they've been planning 
their node; they might be a good, local source of information.

If we can be of help, let us know.

Tom
