I wasn't even asked to be on the beta team this time; although, I received a letter of commendation when testing 7.0 from one of the engineers stating that He thought I was an extremely good tester. When I asked Jonathan about being on this team, I was told that they pick different people each time they test. However, I know of a person who has been in on the last three beta test sessions. So, I don't think it's what you know, but who you know and if he likes you. The sad thing is that I am a business major with a masters having three semesters of stat. I could have really tested that stat calculator. And as has been said, how is it that no one with a PK ever found the joystick bug? I can't believe that no one writes in grade two braille on a pk. Just switching this to computer braille at least gives you your menu back with the joy stick.

For example, wouldn't at least one PK user out there who was beta testing Keysoft 7.2 have noticed a dead joystick? I have had the opportunity to beta test software, and what is generally recommended by the companies for whom such beta testing is done is that you pound the software into the ground in order to look for problems. This doesn't seem to be the case at HumanWare. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Stacey Robinson Sent: Thursday, September 07, 2006 8:54 AM To: Braillenote List Subject: RE: [Braillenote] Bug in latest version of keysoft Hi Richard, I have th vnqt mpower, and that's a bad bug.
