Bruce, Dave,
This will likely stop people from migrating to 8.2, but so what? It
isn't going to stop new users and existing users in real production
setting will likely wait for 8.3 anyway.
And at this point most production users are only upgrading every 2-3
releases anyway (something which will get worse with time). Heck, I
have former clients who are still running 7.2. Why would they upgrade?
It's never been down, and it's not exposed to untrusted users.
