I've just released a major update of What Runs Where
(http://web.mit.edu/acs/www/whereruns.html). This is the first stage
of a planned ongoing sequence of revisions to adapt it to the evolving
computing environment at MIT.

Major changes:

New IS&T Web page style

Updated for debathena, all Sun software references removed

All links tested and fixed, almost all launch commands tested on debathena

Help pages updated

Many applications that used to live in lockers are now installed via Ubuntu
packages that are components of the debathena-thirdparty metapackage

TSM backup is no longer run from an Athena locker, but rather
installed locally. Link to new Web page with special instructions
for Ubuntu TSM backup installation
