| - | This page documents the order (and possibly dates/times) in which the build process should/will/has proceed(ed). We should use it as a check-list, to ensure that we get everything done. Documentation of the process is not included, as it is assumed that documentation will proceed in parallel with all steps. This time-line also covers much of the migration of services and accounts from the AIX boxes to the new Linux servers. | ||
