Richard, I'm confused. Is paris going to be what the decstation looks
like? When did we decide to alter the system configuartion
(/usr/athena/bin, ...) in such a radical way? My impression was that
there was only a bunch of talk of altering the release packaging and
some experimental implementations such as the sun and rios exist where
backwards compatibility and an installed base is not an issue. I can
go on and on but I would like someone to shed some light on what is
going on here for a release that is supposed to be bug fixes and minor
changes only. I assume I just may be confused since there would have
been a public review of such an important change, of course.
