I think they mean what bugs to fix in the next software release and what
bugs to fix in the one after that
*shrug*
kinda like any peice of software
if you have 10 bugs they break down to
1 mission critical bug
2 critical bugs
4 non-critical bugs
3 non-bug updates (syntax, interface look etc.)
then timelines:
mission critical bug #1: 3 months to fix
critical bug #1: 1 month to fix
critical bug #2: 2 months to fix
non-critical bug #1: 4 weeks to fix
in order for any company to make money they have to release a product on a
deadline, therefore to reach that deadline to contune being a company they
have to push somethings off to the side. No application larger than
if 4 eq 4 then print "4"
will ever be completely 100% bug/error/annoyance free
if a company stopped to fix everything then their product release date would
dissolve and the company would have to live off of previous sales for the
next x years. Wich in some cases work, and in others dont
when dealing with any product the size of cold fusion you probally have
thousands of quirks/bugs most of wich the average user doesn't even see, to
fix all of them would mean years of work.
but i don't know much about this subject, so if i'm wrong i assume no
responsibility for property damage

Well, as an Allaire customer, I say fix all the bugs.
So you're saying some bugs will deliberately not be fixed in 5.0 unless
perhaps they win some popularity contest. Is that as absurd as it sounds or
is it just me? Next time my client comes to me and says, hey, there are 10
bugs in the program you wrote, I'll say, well, 10 is a lot, so pick 6 of 'em
that you dislike the most and I'll just fix those. Puuuhleeease!
Thanks,
