Well, if it was a server crash, it's one hell of an ad for a software company, isn't it? Three days to get it back up is two days and twenty hours too long. OTOH, if it was intentional, what's wrong with a little warning? This is the third outage in the last six weeks, and there were two others earlier this year. I'm starting to feel like the Peter Finch character in the movie Network. The last two times I've posted to the Offtopic area in the Mandrake Club forum. Total responses: Zilch, nada, zero, aught, naught, cipher, zip, nil, nothing, goose egg. Let's see now: "We're getting ready to start the 9.2 release process, so let's screw up the mail lists and then we won't be bothered by a lot of people posting bugs." Sounds like DIlbert's PHB, doesn't it? -- cmg
