Any Athena user or group locker can host dynamic web applications +written in PHP, Perl, Python, Ruby, or any other language, or automatically +install popular blog, wiki, and other software via the quick-start +autoinstallers. + +## linux.mit.edu + +[Linerva](http://linerva.mit.edu), aka linux.mit.edu, +is SIPB's Linux shell server for all MIT users. Linerva is +fast, runs popular Linux software, and allows long-lasting login +sessions. + +## Debathena + +[Debathena](http://debathena.mit.edu) brings the full functionality of Athena to your Debian or +Ubuntu system. Install Athena wholesale or in small pieces—a few +client utilities, or a full system with Athena-account logins and AFS +home directories. You can even run software like Matlab or Mathematica +straight from Athena lockers. Debathena is also the basis for the official +[Athena 10](http://athena10.mit.edu) due to replace Athena 9 in 2009. + +## XVM + +[XVM](http://xvm.mit.edu) offers virtual machines to the MIT community—complete systems which you control and maintain from the operating system up. Create a new machine with the click of a button. Start with our three-minute Debian or Ubuntu installer, or install an operating system of your choice. + +## Library Access to Music Project (LAMP) + +[LAMP](http://lamp.mit.edu) is an electronic music library for the MIT community. Request +songs from a selection of 1840 CDs at [lamp.mit.edu](http://lamp.mit.edu/) and tune in +on MIT cable TV to hear your music play. + +## The SIPB AFS Cell and Locker Software + +SIPB maintains hundreds of useful [[programs in AFS lockers|projects/lockers]] for use on +Athena. Many popular programs are in the sipb and outland +lockers, and even more have their own lockers in SIPB AFS. SIPB's +whichlocker program, located in outland, makes locker +software easy to find. (add outland; whichlocker whichlocker) + +The [[SIPB AFS-Moira synchronizer|projects/sipb-afs-sync]] can automatically synchronize +some AFS groups in the SIPB cell with Moira groups. + +## IAP Classes and Cluedumps + +SIPB organizes dozens of [IAP classes](http://sipb.mit.edu/iap) each year on technical topics both serious and fun. During the fall term SIPB also offers a series of [Cluedump talks](http://cluedumps.mit.edu), with a different topic each week. Add yourself to +cluedump-announce@mit.edu if you're interested. + +## Ask SIPB + +SIPB publishes [Ask SIPB](http://www.mit.edu/~asksipb/), a regular column in The Tech explaining technical tools useful on Athena and at MIT generally. + +## Mailman-ACL + +First steps towards improving compatibility of Mailman and Moira mailing list systems: enabling mutual access controls and building compatible command-line configuration tools for Mailman. Our [[plan|projects/mailman-acl]] to accomplish this is in progress. + +## Clockworks + +[[Clockworks|projects/clockworks]] is the open-source equivalent of Doodle, which allows event organizers to easily poll people about what times are best for them. + +## Dodona + +[Dodona](http://dodona.mit.edu/) is a zephyrbot which uses natural language processing techniques to dynamically understand and answer technical questions. She is still under development, and future additions include a website interface for non-zephyr users.
