Hi All,
Just to clarify some things, as long as gLite is not
working it is not possible to create a Grid project. The reason for this is
that the only VO implementation we currently have is the VOMS VO that is part
of gLite. And since you need to have a VO to create a project this will fail.
But this should not prevent you from testing the
product. In fact nearly all functionalities that are not directly related to
gLite (like for instance the VOMS proxy or the BDII) can be tested. For
instance you are also able to create a connection or a JSDL file in another
type of project (C, Java or whatever) as long as you are in the Grid Project
View. You should also be able to test the Globus job submission. Furthermore we
have a lot of other functionalities (SSH, gLogin, the preference pages, the web
view …) that should work without gLite and can therefore be tested. So it
is time to focus on these other functionalities concerning the test of the
pre-release. So again I wish everybody a happy testing and I hope to get a lot
of bug reports that I can reassign to other people ;-)
Cheers, Mathias
