Description From Rachana Ananthakrishnan 2007-09-10 11:20:12

As suggested on the mailing list,
http://www.globus.org/mail_archive/gt-user/2007/09/msg00063.html, there is no
reason for the certificate request client to require a CA email address. With
other mechanisms to transport the public key for CA signing, the script should
merely generate the request and suggest the user follow CA's instructions for
obtaining certificate.

------- Comment #1 From Rachana Ananthakrishnan 2007-09-10 15:08:44 -------

Modified CA email address to be an optional parmeter. If specified, the
messages print the address, if not a generic message asking the user to refer
to CA instructions is printed.

Changes committed to CoG trunk and updated jar merged to Java WS Core trunk.
