Technical To Do List

1. Make any necessary changes to the startup files in the student template account, csxxx000.
2. Have the Meta-TA approve the startup files. This is required before student accounts can be created.
3. Create the ta_accounts file, the Headta_aliases file, and the Ta_aliases file. Send mail to "admin" asking that the TA accounts be created.
4. Get account information from the students and create the student_accounts file. The Meta-TA will send mail to "admin" when the student accounts are ready to be created. Note that there is a turnaround time of three days, so be sure to request account creation well before you need the accounts.
5. Create the necessary subdirectories in /course/csxxx/handin.
6. If any new students join the class, enter them in student_accounts.new and send mail to "admin."
7. If any students drop the class, enter them in student_accounts.remove and send mail to "admin."
8. If changes need to be made to names, enter them in student_accounts.change and send mail to "admin."
9. Keep track of students who have an account but are not turning in assignments. Any unused accounts should be reported to admin for removal.
