Use Case title: Licensing of commercial software to be used within Grid environment

Short description: There is a research community with its own computational resources willing to offer those resources to the global grid infrastructure. The community is daily dealing with a set of commercial applications (coming from distinct application areas as molecular modelling, material simulations etc.). What will be the EGI model for a situation when this community would like to join EGI infrastructure but have to fulfill specific restrictions related to individual licenses of commercial software packages?

Actors involved: small to medium research group of end-users, local NGI representatives, VO coordinator
