I'd feel uncomfortable with announcing a desupport date before the
IS-Linux-Athena SIPB installer is cleaned up and out of beta.
It would be even better if we had an actual upgrade from SIPB athena
to IS Athena, but I don;t know how possible that will be. I've
thought about playing with it, bt never gotten around to it. If
anyone else wants to poke at this I'll be happy to give you a
braindump on what I've been thinking. OTOH, I don't think having this
upgrade is a requirement fro desupporting the old stuff by any means.
Based on Marc's comment I'd also suggest pushing the desupport date at
least to the end of IAP.
