Hi Steve-
This change is made mostly because the name 'Narrow Waist' was a
little confusing. The scope of the working group has been expanded as
well (this will appear on geni.net soon):
Scope: What is universal across GENI components? How will evolution
be accommodated with or without a full transition of all GENI nodes at
once? Topics in scope include:
- component control (obtaining and managing resources)
- slice control (interfaces and mechanisms for establishing and
controlling slices)
- access control within GENI (usage policy representation and
administration mechanisms)
- interactions external to GENI (facility federation)
- key enablers (identity, authentication)
So, I wouldn't call this a particularly 'deep' change but more a
clarification. I expect other groups to clarify their charters as the
nature of the work becomes more clear.
