Someone posted that eBay is accepting the 55 characters now...can we use it through Sales Manager? When are you going to "flip the switch"?

We are aware that eBay has begun accepting 55 character titles and are ready to release support for this feature in Sales Manager. Our engineers are currently debating whether to 'flip the switch' on Friday or Monday. The tradeoff is between timeliness and stability as there is a risk that eBay may decide to alter their code over the weekend, which would create a system disruption. We will keep you posted.
Thanks,
Diana

Come on you guys!!! You said you were ready for it as soon as eBay implemented it!! Which they did on 2/19 - THEN you said on 2/19 you weren't sure if you were going to do it Friday 2/20 or Monday 2/23, due to anticipated glitches, but you'd "keep us posted". Well, here it is 2/22 & you still are NOT allowing the 55 & you have NOT kept us posted!
Also, will the 55 be available for items in Pending that aren't scheduled yet (I HOPE SO) or only for new auctions we create from scratch???? Keep us posted on that too.....
