Actually I did expect / hoped that to be the case since it is probably good for everyone. As you explain it this just boils down to a misinterpretation of the severity of the bug which is why it wasn't communicated until after the fact. BIG bummer, but at least I am glad to hear it is not due to a lack of communication. Bye, Leonard.
