   [ I suspect this message will prove unnecessary (the transition looks
     smooth so far), but just in case. ]

The name prep.ai.mit.edu has been re-assigned to an IBM-RT whose
Internet number is 18.71.0.38.  This change is already reflected in
the Domain Name System, and will be added shortly in the Host Table
issued by the NIC at SRI.

This machine will be the ftp server and mail list address for Project
GNU as the old prep.ai.mit.edu was.  The machine is ran by Project
Athena at MIT.  The GNU Project thanks the Athena staff and management
for providing the service.

This machine is a gateway closer to the NSF backbone, so ftp users may
see an improvement in transfer rates.

The old prep, a Vax 11/750 running 4.3bsd/nfs has been honorably
retired from service.  Its Internet numbers were:
  128.52.22.14
  128.52.32.14
  128.52.14.14
and are currently inactive.
