Re: [Condor-users] Is this a negotiator bug or what???

It sure does look like it's a problem with the capitalization.  I changed our 
middleware so that it lowercases the accounting group people submit and added 
the lowercase version in the GROUP_NAMES definition (they're both in there now). 
 The debug output from the negotiator seems to indicate that it's adding up the 
"resources used" correctly for the lower cased group.

We've had these group names for at least 4 years though.  I don't know why we 
never ran into this before.
