Winter Again

Filed under: Cotse Related — steve @ 12:08 am

It’s that time of season.  The time my family hates most.  The time I can go days without seeing the outside.  Life is boring for all who surround me as I bury myself in work.  It’s nearly winter.  Those of you who have been Cotse customers for some time have probably seen the pattern, summers we coast with only bug fixes, winters we buckle down for new development.  It’s a pattern that so far has worked well.

So far we have a few ideas for this winter, but no idea if any are the “one” you have been awaiting.  A new release to the webmail interface will happen and clean up some bugs as well as implement a few new features, but most of you use your own mail clients anyway.  There will probably be a redesign and consolidation of some milters, but that will be invisible to you (we hope), with the exception of some better filtering options.

We may offer an OpenVPN solution, perhaps in conjunction with a pptp vpn option for those who cannot get OpenVPN working.   Not yet sure on pricing, but probably $14.95 a mo.  This will oust Socks Plus as our new top service (Socks Plus will still be an available service) and will include all services below it in that price.  There has been some interest expressed in this.

We’ll also upgrade some hardware, both system and network (hopefully this will be invisible to you).  Other than that we’re not set, so if you have any suggestions feel free to offer them to suggestions (at) cotse.net.  Please understand that you will not receive any feedback and we do not guarantee that all suggestions will be implemented.

I do apologize for not providing feedback, but we have found that some people get very upset if we don’t see things their way and do exactly what they told us to do, so we avoid that whole situation by not responding on any, but we do implement many.
