ARGUS collaboration

This twiki summarises the existing ARGUS components and their level of support. In order to cover the areas taken care of by SWITCH, a discussion on establishing an ARGUS collaboration is being discussed. This twiki aims at identifying which of these areas need to be covered by this collaboration.
