And I'd also like to draw your attention to an outage beginning Dec 29  
of unspecified duration (to replace a network switch and other  
upgrades).  This outage will impact both release and trunk reporting  
as well as all Sandia testers.  Optimistically we should be  
operational within a day but, given the holidays and other factors, it  
could be as late as Jan 4th before things come back online.
