I would suggest that Google splits the current availability percentage in the system status into two values. One related to applications using MS, the other related to applications using HR. A single value for the hole system somehow doesn't make sense, as this number won't be accurate to anyon

Hi Yoav, I don't feel this thread hasn't been hijacked, but I'm not sure what your question is at this point. We typically do post an update when there is a system-wide issue and we typically do a post-mortem as well. So if you question is "Can we post something when there are system-wide issues

You sited outage numbers greater than what Greg did. If your app was down for your own fault then it is NOT a google issue. If less than 1% experienced an outage of less than 5 minutes, and those apps were idle then the number of "lost" pages was likely even lower. You said they were not meeting
