Hi Martin et al,

0 for 3. Looks like I struck out on that round :-(

In Baseball, three strikes and you are out, except for the case when the 
catcher drops the ball on the third strike. Then the batter has a chance 
to run for first base, although they are almost always thrown out at 
first. (see second paragraph at: 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strikeout#Rules).

I'm going to make my 3rd strike run, furinige :-)

All I am saying is that we should put the lease management assumption in 
the Readme. It can say "the activation is good for the same lease time 
as you would get with USB activation [URL]" or "the activation is good 
for 999 days then the Xo must be re-activated" or whatever the lease 
duration and policy is. I think the reader will want to know that.

It's a suggested edit to the document. Not a question for my own 
edification.

Throw me out at fast because I'm diving for the base!

me :-)

Thanks,

No. We are working towards a release so we won't be doing
user-friendly docs yet.

Instead I give you this promise: a feature list is a release goal for
xs-0.5, and I will put together a mini  "user guide" for the XS right
after xs0.5 is released.

That will be an exercise in frustration.

This is one little step -- no, I will not ask for review for every 
little step.

 > > They expressed strong interest in lease management

You asked this earlier and I believe I've already replied.
Unfortunately, the answer is "no, this does not do lease management".
Erik has given you a similar answer AFAICS.

cheers,
