ITB Releases

NewOSGServices describes the process for integrating new services into the OSG. An ITB release is defined as a set of services provided by a site (gatekeeper services running on a computing element), a VO (VirtualOrganizations?/VOInfo specific services provided by that VO, such as a VirtualOrganizations?/VOInfoMS server), or another resource provider, such as group providing a monitoring or discovery service that may be used in the context of the ITB. Client packages and libraries for use with an ITB release are provided by VDT releases - either the VDT Client distribution or sub-sets as needed by the client application or user.
