I'd be interested in any info on AFS on NeXT info too.  Once a few other  
projects are out of the way I'll be putting AFS up on this Nextstation in my  
office.  Other people on campus may want it too, if it works out OK.

One question I had was whether there is any issues that come up between the  
AFS changes and the recent changes to NextStep 2.1.  Do the AFS changes  
assume you are running 2.1, or 2.0, or does it not care which you are  
running?
