Hi Ed,

        Sorry for the delay.

There's always a tension between safety and disclosure.

In this case, the three implementations agreed that it was best to make
sure everyone had done a release and ensure there were no problem with
upgrades and that the majority of people had upgraded before we disclose
the issue at all.

Given we found it ourselves it was considered less urgent, but 90 days
is fairly standard across the industry.

Some people were still caught unaware by the requirement to ugprade,
which shows we made the right call in being cautious.  Hopefully this
has made things smoother for the next time we have an issue which
requires upgrading.

Cheers,
Rusty.
