*Just* (as of ~ 1 min ago) subscribed. Even tho it is ~ 9:20 PM East Coast USA time on 13 Jun 2010 where I am, the subscription form seems to think that it occurred on 14 Jun, and charged me at the higher rate -- well, it's arguable that for the purposes of LWN it's already 14 Jun (I'd say certainly it is in Greenwich, UK), and it's my Own D*** Fault I procrastinated and waited so long when I knew full well the price change was coming, so... So be it. I'm not pressed.

However, the subscription form says you can pre-pay for up to 2 years at a time if I understood it correctly, but the applicable drop-down field for # of months maxes out at 23 months, which is _not_ 2 years. I know, that's at most a minor bug, but even so... *shrug*

In any event. Hope this is of some use, interest. Thanks for your time.

Joseph

It would be nice if we had that many, but we're not anywhere near that. Account numbers are assigned when the account is created; they don't really have anything to do with subscription status.
