Hear hear! Sure, there are crasher bugs with Pd, but if you aren't
even going to bother to report them, how can you expect them to be
fixed? Most of the developers of Pd use Pd in their own work, and
therefore are very likely to fix problems they encounter. I rarely
encounter crasher bugs because I try to fix them when they happen to
me. So that points to something else: the area where the Pd devs work
are the area where Pd will work best. I don't know any Pd dev doing a
lot with VSTs or even MIDI, so that is not where Pd is going to shine.

A quick search of the mailing list and bug tracker don't reveal
anything from Chris Randall. As a software developer he is no doubt
aware that user bug reports are vital to fixing problems. I think
he could have done a bit more to help his situation.

Hi everybody.
I regularly read the blog @ analogindustries.com, and today an
interesting post about pd vs max/msp stability on macintel appeared.
You can read about it here
http://www.analogindustries.com/blog/entry.php?blogid=1299508451902
To be honest, I always found pd on PPC macs to be fairly stable for my
needs, and the author of the post (in comments) points out that on
pc's pd is fairly stable too.
So I just wanted to bring out the matter to the community, just for
the sake of discussion. No hatred please! :)
cheers, p.
