Re: OODT-402 progress update
Ross,
I agree with Chris that you are doing a great job on this. Thank you for
all the hard work in setting this up. Having a standard geospatial
interface from the FileManager to SIS will prove extremely helpful to
several JPL/NASA Earth Science Missions in the future.
Just wanted to say thanks!
Cameron

Hi Tom!
Thanks for your encouraging words. It means a lot to me that the OODT
team are happy with my work so far. I hope I can deliver something
useful that will be of benefit to you guys.

Ross

Re: OODT-402 progress update

Hi Chris & Cameron,
Thank you for your kind words. I'm honoured to have the opportunity
to contribute to these projects and to work with and learn from superb
mentors. I very much like the fact that both OODT and SIS are
developed and used by NASA. It will be a great feeling and sense of
achievement for me if I can make a positive contribution and therefore
benefit these projects.
Regards,
Ross
