Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Not that I understand the technical stuff, but this gives me good news/bad news feelings: I like the fact that it seems like an actual person thought about these answers, and wrote complete sentences. But it does seem like a lot is "up in the air." Should we be worried about that at all?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

#2 is going to be about standard for most web hosts -- most of them use Red Hat Linux, which is going bye bye. And #3 is standard upgrade caution.

ita, I don't know if this was asked and answered already but will the control panel for the sub accounts be different than the main CP? Obviously, there's a number of features on the main CP you won't want on the others.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Not so much bye-bye as no official RH support, which puts the onus on the Linux community, it seems. Or that's how I seem to read into it.

Yup -- you can test it at the demo panel.

Well, bye bye in the same sense of any software ending its life -- no upgrades, no official support. It's not like they're going to run around and take it away from people.

What Jesse said--it's exciting that someone seems to have actually read the question and answered in sentences in english. I don't know enough techie things to know if all the "up in the air" stuff is bad, or just normal.

Huh. We've totally had this conversation before, haven't we?

I wonder where I left my brain. I know I had it last night...

Except it was me on the "oh? really?" side before.

I feel better now.

Thank you for that.

Okay, now I'm just feeling senile.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I'm reasonably okay with those answers. For what my opinion's worth, anyway. Did we have any other immediate ones? Anything a deal-breaker?
