copyrights, we will use a document that Brent Dunlock started a couple of
years ago as a platform. |

Appliance. Matthew Musgrave currently has a demo running in his
office, Golwater 164. Contact Matthew for more info. |

Issues to address, action items:
 | Post current best practices and develop on-line submission for OS specific
best practices. |

presentation on the system and answer questions from the group. It will be
geared towards IT professionals. |
