==== Updating the Condor manual ====
After updating Condor, download a copy of the corresponding Condor manual in PDF format.  Then, copy that PDF file to the ''/var/www/html/condor/manual/'' folder on ''condor.cs.wlu.edu'' (aka ''john.cs.wlu.edu'') to make the manual available to the world as a URL with the format http://condor.cs.wlu.edu/condor/manual/condor-V7_8_1-Manual.pdf .
