> Fyi, this appears to have gone well on Joyce's old machine, pbreton's

> There were only a few minor bumps (like removing old pgsql rpms, etc.)

> All hail the release team!

> The Athena 9.1 public release is currently scheduled for the evening
> of next Monday, July 15. Machines set AUTOUPDATE=true should take the
> update to 9.1 automatically.
>
> To manually update an AUTOUPDATE=false machine to the 9.1 release, do
> a console login (^P at the xlogin prompt) as root and run:
>
> SOLARIS:
> detach -a
> attach -O athena-sun4sys-91
> update_ws
>
> IRIX:
> detach -a
> attach -O athena-sgisys-91
> update_ws
>
> LINUX:
> update_ws 9.1

> Release notes are available through the "help" command. The biggest
> change is the switch from xmh to Evolution for the default GUI mail
> client, and from nmh to Pine for the recommended tty mail client. The
> old mail clients are still present and supported, of course.
>
> Please report any problems you see using the "sendbug" command. If
> you have any questions or comments, please send them to
