Hi Everyone,
  Here's a status report on the "beta" and "early" clusters, which will be
getting the January release before it goes public. (The beta clusters will
get their packs from the rel-eng cell, and the early clusters will get theirs
from the athena cell.) Of course, we can add or change what's in these
clusters any time, but my main goal here was to find a contact person for
each workstation in the beta and early clusters, and thanks to all the
helpful mail I received, we've now got 171 machines in these clusters, with
64 contacts. This includes about 60 machines in public clusters.

  Here are some current numbers:

  Total machines in beta clusters:    41
               DECstations       14
               RS/6000            6
               Suns              21
  Total machines in early clusters:  130
               DECstations       74
               RS/6000           22               
               Suns              34

If you know of anyone who wants to have a workstation added to a beta or
early cluster, please have them send me mail. Thanks.

                                Anne
