Hi John
As mentioned in response to your email (but also now here for the benefit of others following the thread).
1) Several sites have it as a second/third choice to use CERN, none have it as a primary BDII.
2) There may be LHCb jobs that specifically lookup CERN as the top-level BDII - the UK sites in the list are all LHCb sites. (Perhaps someone from LHCb can confirm?)
For those at the meeting who asked, the sites listed show up in CERN top-BDII logs.
