Hi Ben (et al), Currently Blogware is not integrated as part of the RWI2, we are currently transitioning it from R&I (NSE Program) to Product Management and part of that transition will be the plan and eventual integration into the OpenSRS "family" as they say (timing of that integration is still tbd).
So for now, no, Blogware billing will stay as is.

I have a question w/rt the "monthly billing service" enhancements as described in the LRU we just received. The section talks about "RWI 2", and the quick reference guide PDF provided shows screen shots of this RWI 2 which is something I've never seen before. I infer that this is used for email defense and managed dns provisioning (neither of which I currently provide). According to the LRU, we "will now be able to specify the expiration date for all monthly billed services". Does this include Blogware? (If so, will this be rolled into the Blogware admin interface, or...?) -ben On 30 9 2004 at 2:00 pm -0400, [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: >6.
