can someone help Matt please?  I'm not going to be able to deal
quickly.  Maybe figure out if the machines should be beta test
machiens for a little while?

Hi Jonathon,

I'd like to take the 8.2.17 release as soon as possible on at least two of
the sun workstations in 3-462 so that we can test the pro/engineer patches.
Would this be possible?  the machines would be harold.mit.edu and
gordon.mit.edu
