[gin-auth] Re: Create a VO for MultiGrid team ?

[Erwin Laure]

Hi Dane et al.,

This is a very good plan.
EGEE could offer our existing VOMS service that runs in NIKHEF (Oscar 
Koeroo, cc'ed, is the responsible for the system) and already serves a 
number EGEE pre-production VOs.

I'd suggest we call the VO "gin" ;-)

Cheers,

-- Erwin
