Is there a list of "official" VOs for LCG? I see that there is also a ZEUS
VO hosted at CNFN, althought I think there is one at DESY too. There may
be a reason for having multiple VOs within a single collaboration, but it
would be useful to have a way of finding out what VOs exist, and which one
a given site should support, if any.
At UCL we were thinking we might have to set up our own VO server for
CDF, or at least for CDF UK. If there is one hosted at INFN, should we
support that instead? Or should we set up our own, since it may well be
that we want to keep the tasks carried out by UK physicists separate from
whatever Italian CDF members want to use their resources for? I suppose
that is the sort of thing VOMS is supposed to deal with, which leads to my
next question...
What is the status of VOMS in LCG? Is it possible to support a VOMS VO on
a standard LCG site? If so, is there any useful documentation? If not, is
there a timescale for adding VOMS support to the official LCG release?
