This is a lot to expect from any software, especially a fast moving framework like RB.
That said there is a lot of room for improvement. Since the beginning of the rapid release program, we have been reliably getting a new release every three months, but unfortunately, we haven't really had what you'd call a stable release since the program's inception. In some cases, new features effect previously working code in unexpected ways (introduce new bugs). Unfortunately the Rapid Release program has also become the Slow Fix program by design. Since there will be a new release 3 months after the current one, any bugs that are found will have to wait up to 3 months before a fix is available (more if RS doesn't consider it significant enough to bother fixing). At least with the old release program developers could expect an .x release that contained nothing but bug fixes a few weeks after a .0 release. I would really like to see a bit of a middle ground where at 4 to 6 weeks after a new rN release, a bug fix release is issued. preferably one that we didn't have to pay an extra $5/bug to have. -jason On Feb 19, 2007, at 7:06 PM, RBNUBE wrote: > I would rather purchase a product that works properly in the first > place. > After all, this is the way it is supposed to be. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe or switch delivery mode: <http://www.realsoftware.com/support/listmanager/> Search the archives: <http://support.realsoftware.com/listarchives/lists.html>
