So, in case people didn't know (and I hope you all did) there is an
AUI test account, username "gu" (Gnome User). Anyone who wants the
password should ask me.

I just put its dotfiles into CVS, as module prototype_user. There is
also a checked out copy of all of these files[*] in ~gu right now. In
order to do a clean checkout do:

cd ~gu
cvs -d /mit/aui/repository -u checkout -d . prototype_user

You should not have to do this, unless the account gets nuked, but I
thought I would tell people since it took me a few minutes to figure
out.

On the note of the account getting nuked, it would be good if people
(read: yak, beland) would add any configuration files that they
consider important to cvs, so that we might in the future clean out
gu's account with impunity.

Questions?

PS: I also cleaned out /mit/aui/usr, since it no longer contained
anything of value and I had created it in the first place. Everything
that was there can either be found somewhere in /mit/source-8.3 or in
/mit/aui/src/prototype_user. If you used to depend on something there
and need help finding it, just let me know.
