- But as with any change in workflow, conventions may need to be discussed and agreed on, and new skills and habits developed.
- When and if it's a "go" per Physics's decision, PhysIT can make this server "drive" appear automatically so it becomes easily available on all staff computers. This is almost immediate, once committed, via AD policy.
- This drive will appear on all Physics staff computers. It can safely be ignored by folks not using the service, but they may appreciate knowing what why it will appear on their computer.
- Roger has workd with Greg at A&S to set up the space (started 11/15/13), in anticipation that this service will prove of value to Physics. This could have easily been reversed if there had been a "no go" decision, of course.

- Add Oliver to the "Instruction" group so we can see what limited permissions look like.
