[glue-wg] publishing srb information on glue

[Shunde Zhang]

Hi Laurence,

Thanks for the reply. Can I ask how to put SRM interface onto SRB? Yes, we have
sucessfully put gridftp interface on SRB. but we just want to
publish 'authenic' SRB information to our MDS. if I make my own schema to do
that, would it be a problem of using 3rd party software since other people only
support the standard GLUE schema? thanks a lot.

Cheers,
Shunde.
