Good stuff, I new FNAL had done a lot of work here. Its good to see some
of it in the public arena now. I agree its going to be needed.
We in DESY will be trying to integrate the billing database into the
information monitoring soonish but I don't know the time scales. I guess
its more YAIM functionality for the future. Right now I am on a feature
freeze trying to chase out all the bugs in all the different YAIM setups
that users (And now also developers) have suggested they want.
Currently setting which host is the pnfs admin is a task I may have to
do soon. Also some developers for some reason don't want VO's setup,
still haven't found why, but then developers do often need such things.
Regards
Owen
