The midway sucker, sepherke, wanted to have one NetBSD-Athena
and one Linux-Athena machine at the midway tomorrow afternoon. We have
plenty of office NetBSD machines for the purpose, but the one official
Linux machine in the office, cutter-john, has been deemed nearly unfit
for transport[1]. The current plan is to take snorklewacker to
demonstrate NetBSD-Athena, and to take planet-zorp, reinstalled with
Linux-Athena, to demonstrate Linux-Athena. I'm planning to reinstall
planet-zorp with the new NetBSD-Athena release anyway, so blowing away
the current contens isn't a problem. I'm also not worried about the
loss of a (slow!) build machine for a few hours during R/O.
Next year, netbsd-dev and linux-dev should be more proactive
in picking machines to send to the midway and communicating to the
midway sucker about it.

[1] This sucks. Someone want to fix it?
