Sorry, I was unclar.  I meant just redirecting http://athena10.mit.edu/index.html 
  and http://athena10.mit.edu/install-athena10.sh before Wednesday.

We can discuss this on Monday or Tuesday.  I'd be fine with it (and  
then we can change the URLs on the publicity to just be http://debathena.mit.edu 
, or we can leave it as "Beta" for now and merge sometime between now  
and June.
