Agreed.

True, but there's a Nordogrid use-case for recording per-VO space usage info 
for shared spaces.

(this is right, isn't it?  I often feel like the only one bringing this one 
up)

For the most part, I don't mind how things turn out provided they can be 
mapped to dCache concepts, so I can publish the information.

I, too, am concerned that this will balloon the stored data, but I'm happy to 
go with what everyone else decides is best.

Cheers,
