   * '''We are not an archive''' - Please clean up or move offsite any large log files and traces after your experiment is done and paper is published.  This makes sure that storage is available to researchers who are actively using the testbed.
   * '''Keep things tidy''' - Remove unused custom operating system images.  Experts tell us that 22% of custom operating system images are never used even once.  Why keep that entropy around on disk and make us keep backing it up day after day after day?  You don't really need twelve untarred linux kernels in your home directory forever, do you?  It slows down our backups, crash recovery disk checks, and takes resources away from other researchers.
-  * '''Of course you can have more space! ''' - Your quota isn't set in stone.  If you need more space, just contact us!  All these draconian sounding quota limits and housekeeping requests are so that we have extra space to allocate to you!

   * '''Let us know if you are done with your project''' - Let us know if you no longer need your project and we'll clean it up for you!
