Hello,

The top item in the Athena menus is an item named "Athena 9.3 Alpha",
which sends the user to a web page describing Athena's "Release Timeline
and Rationale".

As far as I know, Athena 9.3 is no longer in Alpha, and it might make
sense to rename this menu item, and point it to a web page that is more
useful for general users.  As one suggestion, the menu item could be
renamed "Athena 9.3 Release Notes", and could point to the release notes
at <http://web.mit.edu/olh/Release/9.3/> .  Perhaps you have a better
idea of what to do with the menu, but I'm guessing that most users don't
need to read about Athena's release rationale.

Thank you,
 Jacob Morzinski

says that f_l is the proper place for this mail.))
