And now for the ever recurrent question...
What's the state of interrealm Zephyr?
My own need for this is that I'd like to get a Zephyr service up and running
at the MIT AI Lab. The main impediment is the group of people who currently
communicate with the rest of campus with athena's zephyr, and would be pissed
if they had to stick to talking to themselves.
This doesn't really necessitate a full-blown, generic interrealm Zephyr.
A "fork-tongued" zhm, which kept in contact with two sets of servers at the
same time (athena's and the proposed AI servers) would do the trick.
Most people would probably use the AI service exclusively anyhow.
Does anything like this currently exist?

ps: AI and Athena have completely separate namespaces, userspaces, file
servers, etc.
