So have been going through my e-mail archive and there are a bunch of what I'd call "interesting" e-mails from google about changes in policy

Hello,

We recently announced upcoming changes to the maximum number of users for Google Apps. We want to let you know that, as a current customer, the changes will not affect you.

As of May 10, any organization that signs up for a new account will be required to use the paid Google Apps for Business product in order to create more than 10 users. We honor our commitment to all existing customers and will allow you to add more than 10 users to your account for [domain redacted] at no additional charge, based on the limit in place when you joined us.

Sincerely,

The Google Apps Team

Here's some important news about Google Apps--but don't worry, there's no need for you to take any action. We just want you to know that we're making a change to the packages we offer.

Starting today, we're no longer accepting new sign-ups for the free version of Google Apps (the version you're currently using). Because you're already a customer, this change has no impact on your service, and you can continue to use Google Apps for free.

Should you ever want to upgrade to Google Apps for Business, you'll enjoy benefits such as 24/7 customer support, a 25 GB inbox, business controls, our 99.9% uptime guarantee, unlimited users and more for just $5 per user, per month.

Today, we announced that we're changing our name from Google Apps for Business to Google Apps for Work.

Over the years, the size of our team, the breadth of our offerings and our commitment to business customers have all increased substantially. Organizations of all shapes and sizes, from one-person start-ups to corporations with over 200,000 people, are using Google for work. To reflect this change, we've renamed our products.

To be clear, only our name is changing. The product experience remains the same, as does our commitment to bringing you the best tools to run your business.
