Sure. If that can be done now, that would be great. If the current
productlines do not make that possible, an other temporary solution can be
found.
No idea if a mail can be send by running YOU. It would be a very good
idea. Send people an email to root that explains a bit and points them to
a website explaining more in detail what to do, why it is done and so on.
