Not much to do with those plans right now. (PHP 5.4, IPv6, and SSL are all more important.)

Please expend excess punchiness left over after SOPA on PCIP, the “Protecting Children from Internet Pornographers” act, which requires us (and all your other online service providers) to log all your IP information for “at least” 18 months. (This is, incidentally, the legislation some people expect certain SOPA provisions to reappear in.)

It just means don’t interpret “we’re not happy about this and want to do something about it” as “hold off your renewals because we have a great plan that will fix everything any minute.” Any plans we have are too long-term to matter right now.

I read this sentence three times and it still doesn’t make sense.
