Hi Chris and everybody else...

CCN is under considerable pressure to abandon both

cfn.cs.dal.ca and ccn.cs.dal.ca

and the technical committee has been working on methods of accomplishing
this.

One thing that needs to be done is to eliminate references to these
addresses from the IP documents. (The Helpdesk is pretty clean as a result
of the new document set and the switch to CSuite.)

With help from MichaelS... I've modified one of my sanitizing scripts to
accomplish this.

I've tested this on the HAPCS/ directory tree and we have good confidence
that we can do this without catastrophe. As part of the work I back up
each IP's directories (separately) and this could be used to restore the
document set if disaster overtook.

now... 

1) it's important that the work be completed in the relatively near
future, and.

2) it's important that the work not disrupt the IP's activities or frame
of mind.

I'd like to do a little more testing... on an IP directory where the IP
uses one of the HTML Editors... but I'd also like some suggestions as to
how we might move this forward.
