We could use an office manager.

Still here.  yeyeyeyeyeyeyeyeye yayayayayayya  wheeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

People can start using kerberos now.  It was distributed to all the vaxen.  To
use it, put /krb ahead of /usr/ucb in you search paths.  Run /krb/passwd to
register yourself.

All the cardreaders are removed from the machine room doors.

	Computer Services:

They are working.  Simson wants us to consider putting out $400 for a PC hard
drive.  

	Telecommunications Report:

Checked out the w20 terminal room.  SIPB has four working modems.  Six working
Multics lines.  All LA36's ready to be hauled away, sitting in the middle of
the multics room.  258-SIPB is one signature away from reality.

We need a Telecommunications Chairman.

The Mac needs to be put under apple-care, this is a job for...
The telecommunications chairman!!!

	Publications Report:

"Using the SIPB Laserwriter" and "Using the 9700" are going to w20 after the
meeting.  

Inessential Guide to Athena is almost ready.  Markable copies will be lurking
around the office for corrections.  thanks to ambar.

	R/O Report:

Dangerously close.  Irene is working on contacting people trying to coerce
people to show off places.  Two tables and four chairs to play with have been
reserved for the SIPB at the Midway.  We need ideas for demo programs.

We have three dialing modems and one vadic which requires and external phone.

	IAP Report:

Slowly getting closer.

	Other:

Wesommer is alive and walking.  He is the only person who knows how to do
useful things with mh-mail.  He was also late to the meeting.

	Other Other:

Some of the helmets that the SCA people use weigh 12 lbs and are *really*
