Maybe it's just some deal we had originally, but our UCSS for Unity licenses doubled recently. We're looking at whether we should continue buying it, or cut our losses and wait for the Exchange guys to put in Exchange 2010.<div>

<p>Historically I've been a X.1 release kind of guy as I have
been nailed on some X.0 releases (UCCx 4.0 -- 23hr upgrade).</p>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>But since Cm went to the appliance model, are there the same
fears of moving to a 8.0 release so long as it's a 8.0.3 type release?</p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p><Cisco guys plug your ears></p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>I'm thinking since I have subscription and smartnet getting
onto the 8.x train and then not subscribing next year.</p>
</div>
<div>
<p> </p>
</div>
<div>
<p>what are others thoughts?</p>
</div>

<p><span style="font-size:10pt;color:black">Last I heard was they were looking at 18 months between major
versions. So, if v7.0 was out last summer, then you're looking at sometime in
Jan 2010 for v8 (of CUCM anyways). I don't thing the .1 releases are as tightly
controlled.<br>
<br>
There was an EFT for Connection 8.0 not to long ago, and it's typically 6 to 8
months between EFT and release. So that would coincide with a Jan-Apr release
of v8.<br>
