This was a non-meeting, so don't get anxious. Some of us ate cookies
and schmoozed...
1. dan has lists and lists of lockers. Some of the basic bunches
that the release team may want to consider:
- modified this year, needs a maintainer
- reference lockers
- untouched and uncared for
- no contents, no owner, nothing
He will be sending out mail concerning some of the lockers. Including
the suggestion that there be a readme, with at least the locker
maintainer address.
2. afs -- in the longer timeframe (5 years?), we may need to consider
switching. what options are available? what models do we expect to
support? dfs? nfs? others?
we probably need to have a small group considering these questions and
collecting information, even though we don't expect any near-term
major shifts.
3. IRIX 6.2 and Solaris 2.6 should probably be starting up in the
January timeframe, to give us time for everything. We'd really like
to see IRIX 6.2 make significant steps while Craig is still here...
4. We may not need another release team meeting until January.
thanks
mike
