Next week I want archival tapes made for the release 7.4 source and
build trees. We should make two sets: one of them via "vos dump" that
we can use if we have to do a restore in the near term, and one made
with "tar" for long term archival.
We have the space to duplicate the whole source tree in the rel-eng
cell. I'd like to have the read-write copy of the volumes for the 7.4
reference kept on Athens drives as long as we have the space. The
"master" source tree should be kept on Fujis or other reliable media.
By keeping a read-write copy of the 7.4 volumes, we can still patch
the release even as we move forward with other development such as
integrating the Sun port.
