- New debathena-workstation released, ATN-18 closed, yay.

- Quickstation deployed (quickstation-2, W20-3xx), ATN-14 closed, yay.

- Oliver: Sun EOL progress.

letter has been vetted by ist-comm and other relevant people.
Plan is to have 4-167 be a Sun-only cluster for the fall semester, and  
then we'll kill them off in IAP 2010.
Ops has generated list of Athena Suns, and we have contact info from  
moira.  Very small number of problems expected.
Spreadsheet will go in the wiki, colored green, yellow, red, for least  
to most concern.  Total count is O(120)

De-support date is end of FY09, no more hardware support or updates.

We kind of claim people can run stock Solaris, but no one really  
supports it, and we don't license it anymore.   We should figure out  
if we still have contact with Sun.

The E911 machine is an Athena Sun.
