    Could you make it 12 hours? Give me a chance to get some work done ;-)

      Hey, did you ever know any computer related task to take the "expected" amount of time? ;)

      12 hours would seem to be excessive overshoot for anything other than a catastrophe though.

    LOL: 42++ to a general announcement? I guess 42 people needed to unload extra votes.
    I'd never do that... err, never mind :)
      42 is the answer.

      Well this just means that we appreciate that someone is telling us what is going on and is actually announcing this thing.
