Andrew,
Thanks for your help, it turns out to be a big deal about nothing. Since we do have an OpenACS vendor branch, I made a copy of my CVS repository for testing and followed the upgrade instructions verbatim. Nothing was "scheduled for removal" and my intranet package was not touched (and none of my changes even caused conflicts). As I suspected at the outset, I just didn't know what I was doing.
I will have to watch out, as you say, for a new intranet package showing up in the distribution. There used to be an intranet package, but our package of the same name has nothing to do with that. I preface all my packages with bma- to avoide collisions, so I would be good to rename this package to bma-intranet, but that's a topic for another thread.
Thanks again!
