It is best we "Get this > right, the first time." This is follow up. I didn't think this was necessary, I don't want people not familiar with the term "Getting it right, The first Time" to think I am a hard core engineer who waste time trying to achieve perfection. No, not at all. It is a QA philosophy. Google it if you (speaking in general) are not familiar with it. "Getting it right, The first Time" is not just a cute euphemism. It is mindset in product development of doing your possible best (including ethical best) at the earliest in order to reduce costly belated issues down the road. My apology if I cited the known obvious to you. -- Hector Santos, Santronics Software, Inc. http://www.santronics.com _______________________________________________ ietf-dkim mailing list http://dkim.org
