Well, the glue2-enabled bdii was released last week, so we now have the
ability to publish, but so far there is nothing to actually do it. Since
the benchmark is static information you could do it quite easily just by
dropping some appropriate LDIF in the gip directory. However, to get the
full CE publication with all the dynamic information is going to be
fairly complicated - in my talk last week I said I hoped we might have a
first attempt by the end of egee, but the word is definitely "hope" and
not "expect" ... OTOH if there were a strong demand for some specific
thing like benchmarks we could probably get that out earlier without the
full publication.
