Hello Everyone, <div><br /></div><div>I am not sure if everyone gets these notices from D2L, but I will forward these as I get them. The notice is listed at the bottom of this email. </div><div><br /></div><div>Concerning the possibility of performing an upgrade on Jan 2nd, I submitted the request to Cary on 12/11 and Cary said it can take sometime to get a final quote. Cary informed me today the he should have a final quoted cost OneNet will incur to migrate to the new 2008 servers tomorrow, Dec. 21. </div><div><br /></div><div>The most important question now, assuming I get a PO and D2L can schedule the work for test next week and production on Jan. 2nd, is everyone comfortable with having a short time to test the upgrade before we upgrade production? If D2L can upgrade our test system by Dec. 27th, that will give everyone 5 calendar days to test. I am ok with this since we are not changing the app just upgrading the server OS. Please provide feedback, since I know in lieu of the OS upgrade we may want to have D2L apply a service pack. </div><div><br /></div><div>Thanks</div><div><br /></div><div>Frank Hedges</div><div><div><br /></div><div>-------- Original Message --------<br />From: <span class="sender"><b class="name">D2L Customer Service </b><customerservice@Desire2Learn.com><br />Date: Dec 19, 2012 3:50:04 PM<br />Subject: D2L Customer Service Notification: Latest Windows Framework is not compatible<br /><br /><div class="mimepart multipart related"><span xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40" xmlns:m="http://schemas.microsoft.com/office/2004/12/omml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:w="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:word"><p><meta content="text/html; charset=us-ascii" http-equiv="Content-Type" /><meta content="Microsoft Word 14 (filtered medium)" name="Generator" /><!--[if !mso]><style>v\:* {behavior:url();}
