There are 2 things remaining both of which I am absolutely powerless
to do anything about - unless you want to provide me with root
passwords.

1. The actual DDT files are unreacable from auidom for some bizarre
reason.  Add there should also be (??) Y2K files.

2. aipsmgr has no privilege whatsoever to write in the named iso
area.

If you do nothing about these, I will cancel the release.
