Hi Ewan There are details here: http://www.gridpp.ac.uk/wiki/New_VO_deployment. These will be improved with feedback as they start getting used. The regional VOs are already approved by GridPP, so it just needs someone to decide things like: - the VO manager & operator - the VO definition and acceptable use policies - someone to submit the request I think all the relevant domains have already been reserved (remember the new VO names are based on a DNS style). Our VOMS services are hosted at Manchester by Sergey Dolgobrodov.
