Take these with a grain of salt, I speak from memory and
can't claim to speak for all of SIPB.
When SIPB got dt it was for two reasons:
1. because of project pismere
2. so users could deal with PC(MS)-based files that they
got in email or needed to view or the like (similar to the SIPB Mac)
I'm all for a pismere dev environment on dt if the MIT user community
could still log into the machine and do things like print and view
files. Is this possible? Or by putting a dev environment on it
do we make the machine fascist and "SIPB-only" ? A SIPB-only machine
that provides no user services really feels like it goes against
the goals of the SIPB...
