[volunteergrid2-l] Object Health

The tahoe-dev folks are asking if servers on the grid were doing 
expiration.  I don't think so, but I thought I would ask to make sure.

I assume all nodes on VG2 are still configured with 365 day leases. 
Does anyone have nodes that don't have this?

Thanks,

Brad
