[UR-WG] Ideas for storage accounting record

[john alan kennedy]

Hi John,

That's a good point.

Do you know where we can find it or do you have a contact person who we 
can talk to?

Google showed me that they just had a Storage Forum but I didn't find 
anything on their accounting as of yet.

osg-storage at opensciencegrid.org seems to be a possible starting point.

Did anyone else chase this up?

cheers
