Partha mentioned that he had heard from Keith Bostic, looking for some help with the preparation of 4.4 BSD. A lot of things need to be rewritten (from scratch), (ie. /bin/ and /usr/bin/). The board discussed the matter, and agreed that this would probably be a good thing for us to do, but individually, and not as an organization. Cimarrron asked why Phil Lapsley (sp?) was the first to receive mail about this. Much discussion followed, with the conclusion that Keith Bostic knew Phil, and sent him mail asking about what undergraduate organizations might be able to help. If you want to help, send mail to Partha. (psb@widow) The following people said that they were interested in helping: Robert Cullmann, Adam Richter, Partha Banerjee, Case Larson, Adam Glass, Drew Dean, Peter Shipley, and Dave Sharnoff.

The Apollos are supposed to ship tomorrow. The machines should arrive the first week of May, and some of us should be there, but not all of us. Send Peter mail if you want to be there. (shipley@widow)

A sample module from Lurnix was brought to the meeting, do we want to use this as part of our documentation ? Look at it in the next week if you haven't already. Nobody has written anything yet.

There was nothing new to report re: bylaws, user etiquette, or policies.

The meeting adjourned at 6:26pm. Marc Hertlein arrived at 6:27pm.
