Guidelines for Using MIT Thalia Service
 Intent: This service is intended for use by MIT administrative groups and projects. It is offered on an "as is" and "as available" basis, as is intended for Institute business only.  If you wish to create a wiki site for personal use, please use a third party solution such as flickr http://www.flickr.com/.  Prompt response to questions or difficulties can be expected during normal Institute business hours, and the team will work to resolve issues as quickly as is practical.
 Acceptable Use: This service is to be used for legal purposes only, and in conformance with the Policies and Procedures of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. For example, you may not use it to post, distribute or disseminate any defamatory, obscene, or other unlawful material, including another's proprietary information, including trademarks or copyrighted information without express authorization from the rights holder. See the Acceptable Use Policy (http://web.mit.edu/policies/) and MIT STOP IT (http://web.mit.edu/stopit/).
 Domain Administrator's Responsibilities: The person or group designated as domain administrator has first-line responsibility for ensuring that content and access control for the site adhere to the above-mentioned policies and procedures, and any further policies desired for their particular domain. 
 Quotas and fees: Thalia currently offers up to 10 GB of storage per domain free of charge. This is subject to change and availability of storage from Operations and Infrastructure Services.  Any storage required beyond that can be purchased in 100GB increments for a fee of $1,100.00 annually.  In order to assist us in our planning efforts, please contact thalia-support@mit.edu if you need more annual storage than is outlined here.
 Please note that IS&T may establish general practices and limits concerning use of the Service, including without limitation the maximum number of days that uploaded Content will be retained by the Service, the maximum disk space that will be allotted on IS&T servers on your behalf, and the right to deactivate domains that are inactive for an extended period of time. IS&T reserves the right to modify these general practices and limits from time to time.  If at any point it is necessary to retrieve or export domain data from the system, it will be made available in one or more commonly consumable formats.
 Authentication: Upon release, the expectation is that members of the MIT community will authenticate to the service by means of MIT Touchstone.
