I found arc, the perl-based utility from CERN, but the docs are
nonexistent, and I'm having problems getting the thing to compile (I can't
resolve some of the library references and I don't know the Kerberos or

example, user "fred" can vos release all volumes that begin with
"content.fred" as their names, etc. Is this something doable with ADM?
