I'm really looking forward to see how VMS V6.0's implementation of class
scheduling is going to work with ideas like this.  We could certainly take
good advantage of it here.  And in combined academic/administrative settings
you could "allow" the students 10% of the CPU and all those administrative
people the rest!!  ;-)
