We reviewed the Athena 10 plans and have made some changes to the plan,
and assigned specific people to specific tasks.
Summary:
4 Cluster Milestones, 5 Feature Complete Milestones, 1 Issue
-------------
Detail:
Issue: gconfd has been observed not to consistently restart after
logout. rbasch will do further investigation, and will report, to the
Athena10 list, other issues he has seen.
----
4 Cluster Milestones:
Deliverable: Comprehensive Athena 10 cluster installer.
Change: This was not inventoried in the technical plan as a task.
Action: amb will complete this work at medium priority.
----
Feature: Controlling access through /etc/athena/access.
Change: Since the "update to Athena 10" is "wipe and re-install", this
feature has changed to not need the program to
convert /etc/athena/access to /etc/security/access.conf. But the PWOG
needs to be updated.
Action: jdreed: Would you put into the PWOG task list documenting this.
----
Feature: Athena quickstation work with bugme wrapper
Action: Assigned to amb with Priority low
----
Feature Athena screensaver
Action: Assigned to rbasch with Priority medium
5 Feature Complete Milestones:
----
Feature: Non standard utilities: Lam, Jot etc.
Action: rbasch (with low priority) will review the work, do some ports
and propose any de-supports.
----
Feature: Emacs movemail port
Action: amb will complete this work with low priority.
----
Feature: SMB Client
Action: rbasch will complete this work with medium priority.
----
Feature: Support for Dash
Change: We at Release Team want to get out of the business of supporting
this. Unless a debathena volunteer steps up to finish the config work
for this, we propose desupporting it.
Action: Desuport, label this as done.
----
Feature: Athena nmh
Action: amb will complete this at medium priority.
