In the past two days, two separate people have come into the office
while I was here asking if they could get zephyr and kerberos for
their Linux boxes; the first one also wanted mh, so he could read
mail.  I copied a bunch of binaries from quiche into
/mit/bitbucket/freedman last night, but since I'm not terribly
knowledgeable about MH and Kerberos configuration, I may not have
gotten everything.  Moreover, shared library incompatibilities could
pose a problem for either or both people.

What do people think is the best way to distribute this stuff?  The
people who are coming in are generally fairly knowledgeable, want
specific functionality (that is, they don't ask for "Athena"), and can
pull stuff over the net to their boxes without any hand-holding, once
it's accessible.

In other news, I may have time to have a go at reinstalling quiche
this weekend, on the 270MB partition, using the Tamu or MCC
distribution.  (I got the impression that the Tamu release was a
little outdated, so I'm not sure which is best.  If I can find the
integrated source for the Tamu release, I'll probably favor it,
though, since that will make upgrading things easier.)  Before I go
ahead and risk wiping any paritions, though, do we have source for all
of the Athena-type binaries currently on quiche?
