The Athena 9.4.42 patch release is currently scheduled for this
evening for the Linux platform only.

This is a very small release with only one change:
  * ksh is added to the package list.

Because there is an MIT class with software tools relying on this
change and because of its minimal impact, we are foregoing the usual
testing and notice period.  Apologies for any inconvenience which
might result.

If you have a machine set AUTOUPDATE=false, you can update it manually
after the release goes out by doing a console login as root and
running "update_ws".

Please send any questions or comments to release-team@mit.edu.  Please
report any bugs you find with the "sendbug" command.
