[gin-auth] The VO Groups and Roles for GIN-GGF-ORG

Hi,

[Oops, thought I'd sent this earlier.  Off it goes.]

I'd have thunk it's useful to create random roles and
groups for interop-now-testing.  Just assign them
randomly and don't use them for access control to
anything important.

I for one would like to have some funny stuff in my proxies
so I can see what happens.  And perhaps some relatively
lightweight way of sticking new stuff in there.

They should be able to coexist with the "serious" groups
that Dane mentioned.

Thanks,
			--jens

I would agree that we should not push on roles for this first wave.  
It would be a good discussion to carry forward after the first push  
to see if we can agree on a few basic roles before the SC06 timeframe  
(but after GGF17 timeframe).

I don't know that we should be particularly reluctant to create  
groups though.
I think it might be a good idea to create groups for the different  
focus groups (info,data,auth,jobs) to provide that option of  
discrimination as well as some basic "practice", but that might  
complicate the administration (estimates on what the overhead would  
be ?)  I can't think of an immediate need off-hand (but then I didn't  
immediately grok the need for a VOMS like others did ;-)
