Re: Damage control

It is unfortune to see that a software bug caused disruption of a service, which in turn affected many end users.

However, I just want to point out that this has nothing to do with existing security policy and I can't see why we should change the security policy. Of course certain function of the tool can be enhanced so that membership management will be easier and less time-consuming, but it should not compromise security.

It is clear that everyone (EGI management, security team, software developers etc) agree that maintaining continuity of the service is the higest priority, a temporary workaround is being worked out, but it does not mean we need to change the security policy .

What we are trying to do is to find a fine balance between usability and security.
