Items Discussed:

Miscellaneous:
    It was decided that we need to get more non-cs people to 
    use the cluster.  A suggestion was made that we should
    provide more Software(ie. Cad, Visual Editors, Framemaker ....)
    The idea of offering introductory classes also was discussed.
    It was also stated that we should get the policies printed 
    out.

Publicity:
    Partha will take care of getting us publicity in
    the Daily Cal.  He will also see about contacting
    the Campus HP rep. Hans will talk to campus groups
    and departments (the ones contacted before the donation;
    Anthro, Biochem, Tolman, Mech E's)
    He will also try to find out who the HP rep is.
    George said that he is willing to set up a table at sproul.
    Mention was made about getting an article in Cal Engineer, 
    and in the BerkeleyAn (the campus staff magazine), and in
    the Berkeley Computing Bulletin.

    Supposedly the ribbon cutting ceremony is out of our
    hands and depends on what Apollo wants to do.


General Meeting:
    The general meeting was scheduled for Tuesday
    November 14, 1989. Robert was going to get a 
    room (preferably 145 or 155 Dwinelle, or wheeler, etc..)

New Director:
    Hans was elected to the BOD (through the Decision Making
    Process).  (welcome back hans.)
