But it will work under the assumption of gateway id being unique. May be we can maintain a wiki page with registered gateway id's. Can you please refer to [1] which discuss this issues of mapping end users with gateway identifiers. If you refer to examples at [2], are you proposing to create Entity ID's or Gateway DNS Domain in the format gateway.airavata.org?
