Project Name:   LLAMA (Layered Linux Athena Machine Administration)
Project Leader: Naomi Schmidt
Report Date     Dec 1, 1999
Submitted by:   Naomi Schmidt
URL:  http://web.mit.edu/acs/llama/

Accomplishments past period:

   - Discussed issues and questions that arose from the first
	draft of the Discovery Report and incorporated them 
	into the second draft

   - Created a Business Model, reflecting the incremental 
	savings/costs for adding Linux Athena and Layered 
	Linux Athena to the current Sun and SGI platforms

Goals for the coming period:

   - Review the Business Model with the team

   - Gather comments on draft 2 and incorporate them into draft 3

   - Create an inventory of recommended next steps, including
	getting explicit approval on the various recommendations,
	including how we implement special third party license 
	restrictions

Issues:

   - Do we want to open up the entire question of Athena fees at
	this time, or just strive to keep the restricted software 
	fee and Standard Linux Athena fees in line with current 
	SGI and Sun fees?

Key learnings:

Team dynamics:
