1. 8.1.16 is out

2. Bob Basch has been investigating the .desktop-host question.  It
looks as if we'll be removing the directory on logout, so the user
will NOT have permanent per machine customization (of some things) but
they also won't have a directory per machine they've ever logged into.

3. N42 has colorful "strawberry" tables with dots (seeds).  We're also
looking forward to hearing all about the Boardwalk level.

4.  Dan raised a question about the number of panics reported in
dslogger at the same time as a new patch--is there something bogus
about the reporting?

5.  Heather Harrison, who has been doing the bulk of the Athena
documentation, will start attending release team meetings.

6.  We expect the schedule for the summer release to track last year's
pretty closely.

7.  We may cancel next week's release meeting to let people go to the
ITIT luncheon.
