Plans

• What are you plans for the remainder of Spiral 2?– GEC9– Bringing up all 7 sites– Transition to OMF 5.3

• The GPO is starting to formulate goals for Spiral 3. What are your thoughts regarding potential Spiral 3 work?– GENI WiMAX Eco-system (client support, long running services,

client virtualization, better experimentation support for both BS and clients)
