Agenda:

1) Logins are still slow; adding RAM to the HPs does not noticeably  
improve things
    a) Should we or should we not do something clever with the AFS  
cache and snapshotting?

2) We should start thinking harder about distribution upgrades for the  
clusters.
    a) do-release-upgrade worked for Intrepid->Jaunty, but asked me  
every conceivable debconf question ever, and took an order of  
magnitude longer than a reinstall

3) Bugme is getting hidden by Nautilus.

4) Cluster deployment update
a) Changing the IP address of a cluster machine is harder than it  
should be.
b) Gaining access to a broken cluster machine is harder than it should  
be
   I) Can we do something awesome/evil with remctl to easily enable  
debugging without having to reboot into single user mode repeatedly.

5) Meeting schedule during term

6) Other business
