+I know we've kicked the topic of Sun's support of the Qube appliance around
+here in the last couple of weeks. Well I've been updating our Qube 3 with
+all the patches, etc. from the last month or so (got busy with other
+things). I wasn't sure of the actual order to apply them since the GUI does
+not place them in the same order that the email alerts show. So I went to
+the Sun Qube website and found where the patches are listed, in the correct
+order. Only problem was, it had not been updated since MARCH and there have
+been THREE patches since then...
+
+So I finally found an email link (and man they don't make THAT easy...) and
+sent them the following:
+

+
+Hi folks,
+
+This is NOT intended to sound mean or nasty or anything but I have a REAL
+concern with the frequency that the Cobalt Qube 3 Patch Page gets
+updated. I
+get email alerts from you folks when new patches are available and I would
+think that the web page should be updated at the time those emails go out
+since MANY of us refer to this page for additional information on the
+patch(s) (i.e. will it reboot the server, etc).
+
+The latest entry on the Patch Page is for PHP & PostgreSQL Security Update
+4.0.1 Qube3-All-Security-4.0.1-15959.pkg

+Email alert received: Fri 3/21/2003 4:18 AM
+
+So that seemed to work as it should :-)
+
+I received an email alert on Sat 3/29/2003 4:14 AM for
+Qube3-All-Security-4.0.1-16402 and this STILL does not show on the update
+page.
+
+And I just received notification of two more today:
+
+Tue 4/8/2003 4:09 AM
+
+Qube3-All-Kernel-4.0.1-2.2.16C35-III-1
+
+Qube3-All-Security-4.0.1-16356
+
+And neither of these show !
Qube owners get e-mail notices of updates??
What about Raq owners? Sun abandoned the Cobalt-Announce
list last October. Is there a replacemnet from Sun?
