Hi Folks,

I'm intending to drop all IRIX support we get from the Software Library
effective 7/1- what this consisted of as far as I'm aware was "rights to
use" for a variety of SGI apps, some level of OS support and regular software
updates that I'd send copies of to Bob.

My only concern with this is the SGI license server we need to keep running for
a couple of years. Do we need any kind of support for that from the Software 
Library or can  I drop all SGI support now?

                                     Thanks,

                                             Alex
