Hello offliners,<br>
<br>
Here is a link to the web page of instructions for how to request a
DOE personal certificate. You can use this certificate to access
the services of the open science grid, including accessing the data
from the recent data challenge that are provided online from the SRM
at UConn.<br>

<br>
The process requires that you have a sponsor, and that you are
independently reviewed by a security-enhanced person known as a
"RA". <b>For this application, you can enter me as your sponsor
(as OSG contact person for the Gluex VO) and Sandy Philpott as
your RA. </b>Sandy says that she will consider an application
from anyone who has a valid Jlab computer account. If you have
never gone through this process, now would be a good time. The
certificate you get will be good for one year and can be renewed
automatically online each year, provided you don't let it expire.<br>
