    Meanwhile, we can add sites but only with "local" scope.
	
AOB:
- the page https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/Desktop_Grids_integration should be regularly updated with the
  progress of the infrastructure 
- https://wiki.egi.eu/wiki/VT_Promoting_Desktop_Grids should contain the minutes of the meeting

SUMMARY by Gergely:
- Further feedback about the leaflet can be sent by the 30th of April to Robert. SZTAKI to update the
document based on the feedbacks, integrated version to be produced by the 6th of May. Fine tuning
until the 12th of May, including adding the content into the final layout (probably the IDGF official
letterhead). Gergely can send out the leaflet probably to all of the email lists that are mentioned
in the same document as contact channels for the target groups. Other ways of disctribution also
needs to be thought of, such as webinars, presentations at NIL, OMB, UCB or other regular
teleconferences organised by EGI.eu.

- The IDGF Operation Center will not be completed by the EGI CF. Technical integration is not
finished yet, and after it's finished an MoU needs to be signed between IDGF and EGI. The
distribution of the promotion material should wait until the integration of the IDGF OC is completed
and the MoU is signed, because this will bring much more attractive opportunities for the NGIs to use
DGs.

- A new, EGI-specific section of the IDGF website will be prepared (Robert) - planned by the 12th of
May. This will be linked from the leaflet, and will provide all the instructions that one needs from
EGI to implement any of the 6 use cases that we forsee relevant for those who will receive the
promotion material.

- Jozsef to identify an Operational session in the EGI CF programme and request a presentation
opportunity about the IDGF OC from the session convener.

- Jozsef to populate the existing wiki page about the DG-EGI operational integration with up-to-date
information. Link this page to the VT wiki page.
