Read all the posts in this newsgroup, you will see a *lot* of complains. Too much complains ...
What I see is a lot of the same people complaining about the same problem many times. Or even just situations where we have to learn to do things in a different way. It looks like a lot of complaints even though there only are several.
Minor problems are troublesome, but all new software have them. SM is no exception here. The more people use a software, the more stuff will show up. I don't think that's abnormal. Let me give you an example: do you know www.moviemistakes.com? As its name implies, it aims to list mistakes in movies. But the fact that a movie has hundreds of mistakes doesn't mean that the movie is bad or wasn't well-made: when you look at the list of the titles with the most entries, you realise that they are the most popular movies. So since way more people watched them, way more mistakes got submitted. Same thing here. Bugs will always be more obvious once a software is officially relesed than when only developers and beta testers are preparing it since way more people using way more specific system configurations will be using it.
Features that people liked that got discontinued—it's definitely annoying, but it's not a "problem" or a "bug."
The one major problem I personally have was the C&P one and as soon as it got reported, people got cracking and found a solution in no time. But as not everyone uses the same antivirus products, I don't think anyone could blame the developers for not seeing that one coming before the official launch. Plus, I'm still unconviced SM is to blame in this specific case.
All in all, I honestly believe that no matter the bugs currently reported, SM2.0 is in no way a beta-quality product. Just consider the amount of outstanding bugs for current and previous versions of FF, TB, IE, etc.
Sure, it should aim to be as bug-free as possible, but I don't think any software can ever achieve that stage.
All in all, SM2.0 does what it's meant to do. S. _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
