Unless there are objections, we'd like to deploy the following
patch tomorrow morning around 7:30. If this schedule presents a 
problem please let me or Mark Virtue <vrt> know.

The actual release of the system packs will take about 40 minutes, 
during which time some clients may hang and appear to be unusable. 

If users report problems they should *not* reboot workstations, but 
should wait patiently for the workstation to return to normal 
operation.

Workstations configured for auto-update will do so after the
new release is available and the workstation is not in use.

If there are any questions or problems give a yell.

	-Kim
