Describing/discussing the ideas and reasons behind this for each site may give other sites new ideas or challenge the way they think about how they configure DMF for data replication.
  • "DMF v9" - what features would you like/need in several years time - can we as a group give SGI some ideas on features that might be added in future versions of DMF?
