The folder contains administration scripts that are now being distributed with the installation tarballs. We will keep the folder temporarily to ease transition from the old-style installations, but in the future this folder should be deleted. If you decide to remove the folder, please remove the folder "screening/dist/admin" too. It is essentially the same thing, but for the openBIS HCS installation. Deadlines - the contents of the folder are deprecated since S113 (mid August 2011) - we should delete this folder until the end of 2011
