Re: [Pgi-wg] OGF PGI - Security Model - NEW versions of GSI acceptRFC-3820-compliant X509 proxies

Hi,
very valuable information - probably another reason for sticking to GSI unfortunately in the production space...
- VOMS 2.0 is due to be out during autumn this year.
What is the chance that this VOMS 2.0 get a huge deployment in EGEE then?!
Thanks, Morris

Hi Duane,
-Morris: What is the chance that this VOMS 2.0 get a huge deployment in EGEE then?!
It doesn't need a huge deployment. Even a single deployment at the grid boundary will work to our ends. I dont think so for production interop maybe for typical OGF interop fests. But not for production applications, which are planned between DEISA and EGEE for a few use cases I guess one VOMS is deployed for each VO or has this changed? So it depends with the VO you are working with, e.g. FUSION interop application and their deployed VOMS service in EGEE for instance will matter for DEISA (EUFORIA work Im involved) The difference to OGF interop tests is that we would like to use the interop in production which is different than deploying somewhere a VOMS for special needs. However, it might be the only solution if PGI is not coming up with agreements :-) Take care, Morris ------------------------------------------------------------ Morris Riedel SW - Engineer Distributed Systems and Grid Computing Division Jülich Supercomputing Centre (JSC) Forschungszentrum Juelich Wilhelm-Johnen-Str. 1 D - 52425 Juelich Germany Email: m.riedel@fz-juelich.de Info: http://www.fz-juelich.de/jsc/JSCPeople/riedel Phone: +49 2461 61 - 3651 Fax: +49 2461 61 - 6656 Skype: MorrisRiedel "We work to better ourselves, and the rest of humanity" Sitz der Gesellschaft: Jülich Eingetragen im Handelsregister des Amtsgerichts Düren Nr.
