Go over some req's distributed by vrt
some comments were given to him


finalize vrt's req's

	We'll go over this next week

jweiss: the overview
	I have finished a major revision of this, although there
		are a few more things I need to change
	people should also look at this and send jweiss comments
		before next weeks meeting
	we'll go over this next week

Code Review Diane/vrt take notes, none included here.

splitting volumes across tapes:
	We've decided this is a bad idea; if we hit an EOM during a
		volume dump we should restart it on the next tape

EOM while writing tape footer
	just put it on the next tape
	we need to think more about the footer not being on every tape
		since it is used by scan tape to know whih entries are
		invalid.
	we can have the tape header say this is the nth tape of a dumpset
		the (n-1)th tape is #

We need to think about
		
	How to deal with media errors
