I'm not positive you are the right people to send this too, but I thought
I would mention that quite a few people think the building 4 SGI cluster
is a standard athena cluster, not a cluster reserved for classes.  So
people are knocking on the door, ultimately after the knocking gets 
bothersome, someone lets them in and they say "Thanks, the door-lock
isn't working", not realizing that that is because it has a different
combination.  Maybe a sign inside or outside the cluster saying that this
cluster is reserved for class use would be helpful.  

The cluster isn't too busy right now, so people aren't upset that non-class
people are using it, but it is really annoying when someone is knocking at
the door every 5 - 10 minutes.

Thanks,
Brad Porter
