Unfortunately, this is not quite acceptable because these sources
are fascist and not publically readable.

	* I think we have a policy of not placing fascist
	source in our source tree without very good reasons. I don't
	see them here.

	* The source were system:anyuser rl in project.sipb-athena.

I've removed system:anyuser from the acl of
/afs/sipb/project/sipb-athena/quota. I would encourage that to go
away entirely to be replaced by something that is not encumbered
in any fashion. bdrosen suggests the quotadev locker as a place to
start.

This was the reason I didn't do quota earlier -- I thought that you were
aware of this...

Please remember to check the ACLs and licenses on source trees
before copying them, particularly when you find yourself in
pts groups like read:source -c dev.mit.edu.

Grumble Grumble Grumble.
