On Monday 7/13, between 10 PM and midnight there will be outages for
solar2 and minos, to upgrade them to the latest version of athena
software.

The outage for solar2 should take around 30 minutes, and during that
time anyone trying to install an athena sun should use solar.

The outage for minos should take about an hour.  During that time
users may not receive lert messages, may experience slight delays
logging in, and should get the gmotd from a cached copy on their
workstation's local disk.  (This outage is longer, since minos is
runnign older software.)

(I'll also be updating sunburn, but since this is a test install
server, no one should care.


OK, has everyone lost track of all of the outages occuring next week?
Heres a quick summary:

Monday
between 8PM and 10PM
	printservers, mulch, arbor-eater(SAP), and fiber(SAP)
		(these will be done consecutively)

between 10PM and midnight:
	solar2, and sunburn (install servers) and minos (lert, gmotd, slw)
		(these will be done consecutively, except for sunburn
		which you don't care about anyway)
	In parallel with the above, gooshi (license server)
	In parallel withthe above bion (web based OED server)

Shortly after midnight Tuesday night / Wednesday morning
	hydra (athena-cell top-level volume server)
