1. bind 8.0 has been imported; it needs patches

2. passwd
Currently:
/usr/athena/bin/kpasswd
/usr/bin/passwd
/usr/athena/bin/passwd -> kpasswd
/usr/athena/bin/passwd.real -> /usr/bin/passwd

plus system dependent password files that need to be edited

plan to replace the last two with /usr/athena/bin/passwd
	 -K option  to select kerberized version
	 -L option to select local version 
	default figures out correct version including password.local and
other necessary modifications

3.new /etc/athena/access includes
	user            --      go away luser
	*inpasswd       rl
	*                l

4.password change scheduled for May 26.  Needs publicity: email to
release-announce; motd; posters

5. documentation being worked on; based on system release notes in
/afs/dev/rel-notes/project.  will try to have release notes for beta.

6.  Ultra status

cnboot now has two versions, one for the network and one for the
floppy.  The network version is for the Ultra.

miniroot has /sbin/format
phase2.sh had /usr/sbin/format now format
disks  Seagate.medalist
dev devices pseudotar

AFS os .order
pkgadd
name_to_major
minor_perm
driver_alias
driver_classes

have .u and .m versions - may copy, not track

name_to_major drvconfig boot new name_to_major values may change?

Bottom line: we can now install Ultra5 and Ultra10.  Small ragged
edges will be cleaned up by ghudson and miki.
