-What hosts.tab and domain.tab would you like to have installed?
-(hosts.tab is a listing of all other internet machines
-that a server system considers to be valid server systems
-on the LON-CAPA network
-domain.tab is a description of the internal LON-CAPA domains)
-
-1) PRODUCTION - you want to deliver courses today or sometime very soon
-                on this machine
+Which cluster option would you like to have installed?
+IMPORTANT: to take advantage of the cluster options 1) and 3),
+you must contact lon-capa\@lon-capa.org.
+
+1) PRODUCTION - you want to eventually connect this machine to the
+                LON-CAPA content sharing network. This setting is for
+                schools, colleges, and universities, that currently
+                are running - or in the future will run - courses
 2) STAND-ALONE - you want this machine to run in 'stand-alone' mode and
                  not be connected to other LON-CAPA machines for now
-3) DEVELOPMENT - you want to play with or explore LON-CAPA
+3) DEVELOPMENT - you want to do software (not content!) development with
+                 this workstation and eventually link it with the
+                 workstations of other LON-CAPA software developers.
 4) PRESERVE the existing hosts.tab and domain.tab
