i would prefer if that whole user-scaring part could be omitted
from the announcement.

we are far from the asserted scaling limit (usercount at peak
times is around 20% of zookos number), we allready stated there
will be scaling problems more than once, so lets not scare the
users about this at the moment.

while i would like to be wrong about this, i assert that we wont
get anywhere near the limit before having a MT-replacement.

oh, and perhaps its also better to keep things coming from
someones async-port from the announcements in the future ...

so, DO NOT SCARE THE USERS! (thats Carnies job. :)

Gruss,
  Hauke
