Well how could Google possibly send out an email. That would mean: -they would have to have the email of every dev publishing to the market -have access to a email service capable of sending emails to this group
My point being, they certainly have access to these 2 things, and could easily do this. I would also accept a banner message on the console announcing outages and upgrades. Finally, would it be so hard to actually perform the updates "off- hours"? Maybe on a Sunday? I know this is an international service, which limits the times for maintenance windows, but I imagine there is a better time than during the day on Friday. Developing software professionally for 15 years, I have never released an update during business hours, without notifying my customer (not a single time). I guess the GOOG plays by different rules then us "mortals" On Jun 11, 5:28 am, Mark Wyszomierski <mar...@gmail.com> wrote: > @Tom, yeah my app started appearing again now, thanks for the heads > up.
