Having spent a lot of time with the new server but still using the old one, I want to say that the new app server is very promising but I personally think the decision to make the new app server the default now is a bit rushed. I hope you do not remove the old server before all our bugs have been addressed, this should be the criterion not the date.
In the meantime, where are we supposed to file bugs now that the new server becomes the default so we can distinguish between the new and the old server issues, can somebody please clarify?
