If the ellipsis comes at the end of a sentence, many grammarians insist that it should be followed by a period. But this is a grammatical rule, not a typographical one, and it’s broken quite often. It’s not a rule I follow. If you do opt to add the period, you may need to manually kern it so that it is spaced equally with the other dots in the ellipsis. In many fonts, you won’t have to worry about it, but this isn’t always the case. In some fonts, the period may appear too close to the ellipsis, in which case it should be kerned...or deleted altogether.
When creating an ellipsis, you should consider adding a small amount of space (via your application’s kerning commands) before and after it, or no space at all. The normal space created with the Space Bar is too wide to place before an ellipsis, although it is okay to place a full space after it if it appears at the end of a sentence.

No, the one that made you reformat your computer since it destroyed all your data on a Windows system.

Why don't you share with everyone here how you got this release? Was it another "legal" entry?

Prove it isn't somehow, I'd like to see you do it since it's impossible to do so.
