David,
As I understand your email. The work being done was by
A member of the Biomed VO with the knowledge (and
encouragement?) of people in the Biomed team.
You have identified problems with internal communications
about which I have no wish to comment, but I want to ask
a "meta-question".
As a site, if I sign up to run the jobs of some VO to what
extent do I get to choose the jobs that they run?
From the other side if I as a VO have an agreement with a
site to run my jobs. (And assuming that I correctly
specify the resources for my job). To what extent do I
have to worry that jobs I choose to run are "outside"
the scope of the agreement. I am assuming that non of the
jobs are in any sense illegal.
Do we have to spell this out, not to prevent abuse, but
rather to prevent misunderstanding.
Yours
Paul Kyberd
