1. New machine configuration: Assuming that we get 4 gig disks, 128
meg memory, we will be looking at increasing the swap space and
shhmax.
2. xlogin options: we'll leave the keys mapped to the current
programs (i.e., there will be gaps). However, mbarker should clean up
the internal numbering.
3. Irix XPG4 - this package changes some commands from the SGI
default to Posix compatibility. We had done this under 5.3, and 6.3
also has this already in place. We'll go ahead with it, and watch for
problems.
4. 6.3 update -- we should run the update process to try it out. We
agreed that this should be feasible, especially since there are so few
o2's "out there".
5. Ultra 5's are coming? (Order is in Jennifer's hands)
6. Crash and Burn is coming along...
7. latex2html (in infoagents) depends on perl5 (use locker for now).
8. SGI Compiler license keys still being worked. We got Universal
keys good until April 16, but we really would like year long keys.
