I also agree with this and I wish a little more ;) I think RS must pay big attention to the following: New features do not have any value to customers (mainly to current) if they cannot use a new release due to important bugs that were not fixed or are new! Based on this I created a new feedback report to give suggestions to RS to fix most bugs. Report id: wmqizprq http://snipurl.com/fixbugs Basically my suggestion is to change the Rapid Release Model to the following: - Releases 1 and 3: Dedicated to new features and bug fixes; - Releases 2 and 4: Dedicated ONLY to bug fixes and optimization (no new features). This would allow RS to concentrate at least two times per year to ONLY fix bugs and improve optimization. RS should fix also bugs with one or few 'votes'. If you agree with this suggestion add this report to your watch list and/or if you have any other suggestion please add it to this report: wmqizprq http://snipurl.com/fixbugs ----------------- My side note: I really don't care anymore about new features on new releases... the first thing I do is to check (by reading the release notes and my watch list bug) if old bugs (that are important to me) were fixed. If they were not fixed I don't even waste my time downloading and install a new release.
