Hi folks,
The silence has been deafening on this so I'm taking that to mean
everyone's okay with going ahead :)
However, I am still not clear on who would actually implement a change
to the prototype dotfiles. Is that part of the release to update a
prototype set of files? Is it something that needs to be in the AFS
volume creation scripts moira runs?
Account coupons will be going out at the end of this month, and we
would want the change in place for the bulk of the class of 2012
registrations.
Thanks,
Oliver
