[Florido Paganelli]

Hi Stephen,

I have a few questions about this list, inline:

Which of those have a single endpoint? all of them but Argus and VOMS?

ok so during the last ServiceType_t review we decided that 
org.glite.voms was a ServiceType_t, is that an error?

as you said during the OGF35 meeting, many of these items do not have a 
description. I will probably ask people to fill the descriptions 
themselves for ServiceType_t and InterfaceName_t, but I think the most 
important descriptions are for Capabilities and Policies. I have yours 
on information.publication already recorded somewhere. Any remark on 
this org.glite.standard?
