VPS numbering

[MikeBCda]

This morning's VPS update was interesting in one way -- it was the first "new year" one since the numbering system was changed a few months back.

I had an interesting thought about the numbering, while contemplating the new look (and my navel  ) -- you've only allowed for ten updates per week, -0 through -9.  Admittedly, if things ever got so frantic in the wild out here that you needed more than ten, I suspect at that point even the most dedicated of the Alwil team would feel strongly tempted to throw in the towel and go looking for another line of work. 

Best to all,

Why do you think so? You have made wrong conclusion, because -9 is followed by -10 (as usual), so ALWIL team is not limited in any way 

BTW: When the 'ZERO' updates were made once a month, the number nine was passed quite frequently, so this is realy not new or unusual situation

Thanks for the clarification, Pavel.  I guess I'm just accustomed to that kind of ID number having a fixed number of digits/characters, and it didn't occur to me you could have -10 etc.

But I still stand by my comments about if you ever need more than ten updates in one week.  I imagine that under those circumstances, it would be an "all leaves are cancelled" crisis, with cots brought into the office for everyone and no more than cat-naps for anyone.

You should see the numbering of my HJT log analyzer

That will really confuse you

ps: Pavel, I hope they -9 (-10) is only the version number, and not the temperature in Celsius I get here
