58 updates. That makes this bigger than last weeks update, and I think that makes this the biggest update ever. 

MANUAL DEPLOYMENT:

  1. Add category Phones and CableTV to Service Catalog. 
  2. Should Yale MeetingPlace teleconference be visible (within Phones and CableTV)? I don't know whether or not it should be hidden.
  3. set catalog items inactive: "PTAEO reusable UI initial and recurring" and "Prototype mobile device catalog request"
  4. Go to DEV. Do an XML export of Pagers SC category. Do an XML import of the SC category in PROD.
  5. Go to DEV. Do an XML export of Telephone Services SC category. Do an XML import of the SC category in PROD. Set the Telephone Services category to NonActive.
