1. we agreed to go with path 1489 on sgi
2. we agreed to go with the list of 8.0K
    Solaris 8.0K:
	Quickstation irritant
	sendmail lock files fix
	talkd fix
	write fix

    SGI 8.0K:
	Quickstation irritant
	Kernel patch
	talkd fix
	printcap in exceptions list
	write fix

3.  Greg and Jonathon were delegated as a subcommittee to DTRT on disk
partitioning.

4.  We agreed to ponder the issue of SGI inst/golden
disk/etc. construction.  specifically, there are packages such as java
and vrml which people would like to add, but using inst/lockers seems
complex (since inst "expects" to be able to modify the local disk).
This is part of the continuing support issue of how to handle new
packages after we have "built a golden disk".
