On Sunday, December 27th, I am told that "rutgers" will be down for a period of about an hour or two. Unfortunately, no one knows exactly when this will happen. We believe it will be sometime between 7am and 1pm. Our communications staff is coming in to do major maintenance work throughout sections of the machine room. Their plans are actually somewhat staggering. These guys are going through all sorts of contortions to keep "rutgers" downtime to a minimum. This includes bringing the system down, moving it and its telecomunications apparatus, and bringing it back up. They're good but I'm sure we're all aware that if anything can go wrong, it probably will. So, if you find that "rutgers" is down for the entire day, don't be surprised..... -- Mel Pleasant {backbone}!rutgers!pleasant pleasant@rutgers.edu mpleasant@zodiac.bitnet
