| All public Athena clusters except the one in 4-167 were updated to 
| Debathena during the summer, according to Student Information Processing 
| Board member Geoffrey G. Thomas â10. Debathena allows Ubuntu users to 
| install the same versions on software on their Athena accounts as on their 
| personal computers, and will allow Athena software to stay up to date with 
| their latest Ubuntu versions, said Thomas. Dorm clusters are in the 
| process of being updated, he said.

| Most of these workstations run Debathena, a set of MIT extensions on top of
| the popular Ubuntu operating system. You can access everything provided in
| Ubuntu, as well as the various Athena services (files, printers, etc.) from
| any workstation. On these cluster machines, you are able to install any
| Ubuntu package for the duration of your login session.

MIT to Open Source Mobile Web Code

,----[ Quote ]
| Several months ago, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology created the
| Mobile Web Project in an attempt to provide up-to-date university information
| for its faculty, students and visitors over mobile devices.

| Early next year, Information Services and Technology (IS&T), the central IT
| department at MIT, and the team responsible for the design, development and
| maintenance of the software, plans to open source the code.
