Hi Gerry,

re:

>change, or do I need to tweak some hardware some more?

I agree that the bird has been much happier with the upgrade to dual
opterons and removal of data processing duties, so I think it could
nicely move up to full relay status.

>I'll be in DC at the FGIT meeting the rest of the week.  Wish me luck!

Several Unidata folks will be at the meeting also, so you will see them
there.

Cheers,

Tom
