What does COManage offer a VO?
Initially, COmanage can support the general collaboration needs of the VO, providing list servs, shared file stores, access-controlled wikis, etc. But it is the designed, if currently unfunded, intent to extend COmanage to the identity-oriented needs of the domain science applications. Access to data sets, control of remote instruments, management of digital repositories, even permissions for use of grant funds are all feasible using the COmanage tools of group and privilege management.
