have we adopted the gnu info system?  I don't believe we set infopath 
currently, and I am not really sure that enough lockers provide information 
in the right format.

I believe the answer should be something along lines:

Thank you very much for your suggestion.  At present, the GNU info system is 
not in use as part of the Athena system.  We do not expect or require 
lockers to provide information in that format, and imposing a scheme to 
support the info system does not seem to add significant value to Athena.

Thank you for using Athena.


Does that work?
Mike
