Re: [cobalt-developers] What a foolish system!

In fact yes, Cobalt is not bad at all. We made a nationalization on control
panels and it worked very good as well. But if i'm not the only one who try
to delete old virtual sites and than try to create new sites it still says
"you're reaching limits" it might be a bug. By the way we ordered for new
raq's:)

p.s.: i would be pleased if anyone helps about reaching the limit for
creating new virtual sites with control panel.
