Oops, I should have sent these out earlier.  To update a Linux alpha
machine to 9.3, do a console login as root and run:

  update_ws 9.3

To update a Solaris alpha machine to 9.3, do a console login as root
and run:

  detach -a
  attach -O dev-sun4sys-93
  update_ws

Machines will not auto-update from 9.2 to 9.3 during the alpha or beta
phase.

Also, we've decided to accelerate the beginning of beta by a week (to
April 26) if there are no major problems reported, so get your alpha
testing in soon.
