There's currently a 34 Mb linux-athena NFS locker on bloom-picayune.
Is this being used for anything, and is it important to keep it
accessible via NFS?

As far as I can tell, the last update to a file there was in August
1995. There's some chance users might guess that linux-athena is a
locker they should be looking in, and presumably they might pick up
sources with a lot of bugs that have since been fixed, or, in the
worst case, sendmail 5.67.

It'd be nice (and it'd leave more space for the discuss spool on the
same partition) if the files could be moved elsewhere, perhaps to
/afs/sipb/project/sipb-athena/attic. Also, possibly the filsys entry
for sipb-athena ought to be changed, although this isn't at all time
critical unless the files need to stay there on bloom-picayune.
