    ``The next-generation Globus Toolkit that will combine Grid technology with Web services will be available as an alpha release in January, Globus project co-leaders Ian Foster and Carl Kesselman said at the Supercomputing 2002 conference in Baltimore this week.

    [...]

    ``Kesselman said he was `thrilled' with the rapid strides made by Grid technology in the last year, but worried that Grid might be progressing `a little too fast. We need to make sure we can deliver the capability' that Grid promises, he said.

    ``Kesselman and Foster, of Argonne National Laboratory, cited numerous examples of how far Grid technology has come. They cited commercial efforts by IBM, Oracle, HP, SGI, Sun, Platform Computing, Entropia and United Devices, and Foster noted that `we're seeing Grid signs on booths this year' that weren't at SC2001 a year ago.

    ```We're seeing serious infrastructure based on Globus and Grid technology,' Foster said.''
