CAF has (finally!!) approved the renovations that will result in:
	- UTCC taking over 107, 108, and 109 for a major new RJE terminal
		(among other things, this will supersede the current 109
		setup) plus the associated services like advising;
	- the existing 109 hardware getting moved up to 336, which should
		considerably facilitate the long-desired RJE-from-Unix
		project, and will give us some other useful bits of
		hardware (like a printer for the 34)
	- the renovation of 336, to include proper airconditioning (at
		long last, and much overdue!) and a raised floor.

Officially, the bureaucratic wheels begin to revolve on 1 May 1981.  The
intent is to have things more-or-less complete by 1 Sept 1981.  It remains
to be seen whether this target will be met.

The renovation of 336 may well mean some disruption of Unix service;  at
the moment, we have no idea what the schedule for this will be.  Every
attempt to minimize disruption and to schedule it at the least inconvenient
time will be made, subject to the obvious limitation that we have only
partial control over this operation.  More news when we know more.
