[gin-auth] The new VOMS Server for GIN is active from now

Thank you, Vincenzo! These are very helpful 
requirement info. Perhaps can be included in 
the INSTALL file in the voms package?

Now I have finished make and make install.
What do I need to do with the server pem file,
mkgridmap.conf etc.? Is there an url for such 
instructions?

Dear all, I'm thinking that this may be a good 
opportunity to find out what info we need to 
provide to Other grid admins and users to make 
Grid interopration easier. Perhaps through our 
experiment, we can jot down a step by step 
interoperation guide for each grid?

Welcome thoughts and suggestions from everyone! 

Thanks,

Cindy
