Mostly because we are still below what would be considered a version

going forward we will give it a label number and work on staging server to keep this off public site

Doing final changes, live at 9:30 EST sorry for long delay, seriously took WAY longer than expected

So you only commit to your repository at v1.0? Makes total sense!

You're a so called "banking institution" and by nature you should not afford yourself this type of downtime, especially when it could have been avoided completely!

Supply/demand yo. Take your business elsewhere, or start up a service that offers competitive alternatives

Bitching about service in a state controlled/regulated/monopolized market is one thing. . .let's face it, no one else can currently build highways. But in the bitcoin economy, if you don't like a business' practices, you can take your business to a competitor, or become that competitor

It's all voluntary on a free market, throwing "should" around isn't really where it's at here

Just saying

I'm not complaining, my gripes are founded as a client of the bank. I currently have Bitcoin stored in Flexcoin, and so am interested in rising these questions while he is still stretching his wings. I expect to be able to withdraw money from any banking institution when I want, it's my money. If the service is only internet accessible, it should be available twenty four hours a day, seven days a week. I'm not saying it's inexcusable that he is not engaged in best practices, but it is a concern I have and would rather him think about now then later. If you can maintain uptime and have seamless updates (or close to it) ... why not take advantage of that?

Edit: As a client of Flexcoin, I am very pleased to hear about the planned implementation of a staging area/server.
