Last 18-19 Feb, we hold our second General Assembly, with the main aim of closing the general architecture of the project, review the matching between use case requirements and component features, and defining the roadmap that will drive this year development.The Assembly was hosted by Barcelona Super Computing Center and was really productive. Thanks to Jordi Torres and Rosa Badía and the rest of BSC team for their kindly hosting.  Jordi took these nice photos.Next meeting will be hosted by Caton in Granada by October 2010 with the main aim of presenting first prototypes, validate general architecture and roadmap, and design the integration process.

Nuba will collaborate with IT-Tude.com for dissemiantion of project results through becoming an associate member. This means that IT-Tude.com will commit to sending regular content to the IT-Tude.com editorial staff and in return will receive priority status with more prominent and quicker uploads of IT-Tude content. Nuba will also have a page on the site where we can host information relating to the project and the results it has. This is highly beneficial to the project because IT-Tude is a high traffic site which concentrates its efforts on gaining the audience of researchers, providers and users of cloud computing, grid technology, virtualisation and related fields. IT-Tude makes no claim of exclusivity of ownership of the content provided.

The Nuba page on IT-Tude can be seen at the following URL: http://www.it-tude.com/nuba.html
