Works in webdev: Dear Valued Red Hat Network User, Earlier this year, Red Hat Network hit a milestone that few companies in history have been able to reach -- a user base of over ONE MILLION subscribed systems. Red Hat greatly appreciates your commitment to the Open Source community and also your trust in letting us be your Linux vendor of choice. Because of the costs and complexity of managing over one million systems, Red Hat now has to make choices about continuing these free demo services. Because of our customers' loyalty to us, and our commitment to the values of Open Source, we want to find a way to provide the means for continuing these services while also investing in improved features for the future - features that many of you have asked us to build. To address this, Red Hat will be making some changes in the way demo accounts are handled on Red Hat Network. Since our first goal is to better meet the needs of our community, Red Hat will be collecting data from users. Every 28 days, you will be asked 5-10 questions from randomly selected surveys that will allow us to better understand your preferences, uses of Red Hat Network, and desired features. Secondly, we will be focusing on providing higher levels of service to our paying customers. Paying customers will receive better access to Red Hat ISO's and errata, and will also receive priority bandwidth and download times during periods of peak traffic. For more information on becoming a customer of Red Hat Network, please visit: https://rhn.redhat.com/info/purchase_info.pxt Lastly, Red Hat Network will be cleaning up any old accounts whose email accounts are no longer working. In a separate email, you will be asked to validate your current email address. As each demo is required to have a working email address, Red Hat will check these accounts and cancel all accounts with invalid emails. We hope that this will help us to free up room to better serve our existing customer base. In another email, you will receive directions for renewing your demo account with Red Hat Network for 28 days or to easily purchase a Basic Subscription. There will also be links showing the difference between Demo and Basic subscriptions. Thank you again for your support of Red Hat and the Red Hat Network. We look forward to providing you with new features and functionality in the coming months as we put more emphasis on our services and as Red Hat Linux takes on a more prominent role in meeting your computing needs. -- The Red Hat Network team
