+nginx_clean now cleans PUNs of disabled users
+.............................................
+
+The helper method ``nginx_clean`` in the ``nginx_stage``
+library will now remove PUNs and related files for users
+that have been disabled.
+
+Disabled users have been deleted from LDAP and are no longer
+valid users on that system.
+
+This means that centers that delete users (remove them from LDAP)
+will also now start to clean those processes on the OnDemand machine.
