I wouldn't document -locker on the same list as -standard, -login,
-workstation, and -cluster; I'm not aware of anyone who actually picks it
over standard (we removed documentation for it because of this in order to
declutter our documentation).
I also would anti-recommend the Media Lab mirror, as it goes down
sometimes (someone who uses Ubuntu could give details).
But I do think we will want to advertise a solution for private
workstations with the same software installed as a cluster machine.
I think it's fine for Athena 10 to be using the Debathena stylesheet;
Anders' rant at the top of the css files was induced by unrelated SIPB
projects using the stylesheet. While I think it is silly in the first
place, I don't think his concern applies to Athena 10.
