There has been a lot of discussion in the community concerning the relationship between Web and Grid Services. The Web Services Grid Application Framework (WS-GAF) is a proposal on how Grid applications could be built using today's Web Services specifications. The aim of the WS-GAF proposal is to start a debate on the possible future evolution of Grid Service standards. In addition to the WS-GAF document, we have also made available the Grid Resource Specification which defines the way Grid resources are globally identified using Grid Resource Identifiers and provides the structure of an extensible XML document, the Grid Resource Metadata document, for describing metadata about globally identified resources.
