[THEGrid] TIGRE VO Acceptable Use Policies

[Alan Sill]

Very timely with respect the emergence of to our own needs, I think,  
here is a new copy of the EUGrid proposed Acceptable Use Policy, the  
previous 4-point version of which was worked out in collaboration  
with members of THEGrid and OSG.  It has gone through some  
permutations since then; in particular EGEE wants to add statements  
of monitoring disclosure and liability.

Please look over the documents attached, and I would like to receive  
your comments. We need an Acceptable Use Policy, regardless of  
whether we adopt the previous joint version (without the liability  
and monitoring clauses).  Our present registration efforts give us an  
opportunity to obtain user acceptance of any TIGRE VO-wide policy.  I  
enclose both Word and PDF copies of these documents for convenience;  
these are identical.

The previous joint version is available from the registration link  
that I just sent.

> I remind you that the aim of the User AUP approach is:
> 1. An AUP which is short as possible and simple to read and understand
> 2. Applicable to all VOs in EGEE, OSG and other Grids
> 3. VO's have to define their own AUP and aims document. VO-specific
> issues are addressed here.
> 4. The user accepts the general user AUP and VO AUP when he/she
> registers with the VO.
>
> The user will also be warned during the registration process that  
> their
> personal data will be shared with other institutes as described in  
> point
> 4. The user will explicitly give their permission for this during the
> registration submission.

> We have also recently realised that we need to prepare another

> personal data (registration info, auditing, accounting, monitoring etc
> etc), to address the various legal issues in this area. Grid
