I do intend to upgrade but I don't generally upgrade to new products immediately 
because I don't like being the person heading west in the covered wagon with a back 
full of arrows. After 20 years of computer industry experience I like to make sure 
that what I run is going to work first time in production. I haven't even had time to 
download any of the 1.3/2.0.x series and test them yet, let alone think about 
deploying them. It's only been about a month since we worked out the last of the bugs 
in the 1.2 plugins that stopped me from upgrading from 1.0.x and I just got 1.2.x 
deployed  round all my machines on the day that you announced 2.0.0 was available.

I'm not about to upgrade them all again until I've tested 2.0.x and made sure that it 
works in my environment. I also need to let my management recover from the shock of 
finding that there were 3 times as many vulnerabilities discovered with 1.2.7 than 
there were with 1.0.10 ;-)

If you did not upgrade to Nessus 2.0 and don't intend to do so for some
valid reason, I'd be interested in knowing why. Please upgrade, trust
me, there's no coming back.
