atw: Re: What word to use when ...

Janice,
There are words in English that seem to have an opposite, but really they
don't.
In this case, I am sure that 'undeploy' is a nonsense word.
Of course, I could just be showing that I am a grumpy old man, and not
keeping up with the latest trends..

Well, the guideline we have at work is *eeewwww* :->

Worse is that the techs also are trying to insinuate
"undeployed" (which has shown up as a command option
in a few cases but we're trying to stamp it out in
running text).
