VOMS-Lite version 0.01
======================

This library contains code to produce VOMS Attribute Certificates and GSI Proxy certificates.
The Code for producing and parsing GSI and X509 certificates, and ASN1 is purely perl and independent of 
any OpenSSL Libraries etc.  Some of the utility scripts, however, use SSL Sockets setup via HTTPS::Daemon::SSL 
and it's friends.
