Hi Tiziana,

Products that are part of UMD are available from a dedicated repository: http://repository.egi.eu/category/umd_releases/distribution/umd_1/

Thank you very much for clear explanation. I guess for now on I'll stick
to UMD release, but does it means gLite will no longer supported in near
future?
