I haven't had a chance to look at it yet, and am out of the office for the next week,  I'll try to prioritize it after that.  The only other blocking issue that I know of is the need to come up witha  solution that allows people who use the linerva hostname to get the ssh keys they expect, at the same time that people who use the foo.dialup.mit.edu hostnames get the ssh keys they expect.  I have some thoughts on this, but haven't had time to pursue them (additional ideas are welcome).  Also on my list for after I get back.  I would love to get linerva converted during IAP, but I'm not sure how things will go.
