This approach only requires CVMFS and a valid Grid certificate or a user/host token in ```~/.globus```. It is the simplest approach for getting a CE up and running, but configuration is limited to the options given in the config files.

This approach gives access to the latest CE changes without waiting for a new tag to be pushed to CVMFS (but note that JobAgents will still run from CVMFS). This approach gives access to the latest **CE** changes without waiting for a new tag to be pushed to CVMFS. JobAgents will still run from CVMFS, but their startup script may now be modified - allowing for changes such as what variables are exported, scripts are run before start, and containers may also be enabled/disabled as desired.
