@Rob - I know you communicated this change and asked for feedback for
which I'm grateful- I'm just pissed off that there was no obvious
communication of the date of implementation - at best that's just
unprofessionally poor communication, at worst it's taking the community
for granted.
Why does the date of implementation matter?
There was a long discussion with, thanks to Rob, much more community
involvement that any previous changes. Those comments were discussed and
many changes and improvements made and the discussion had largely come
to an end so I did a technical review of the code and got a few more
issues fixed and then merged it.
I would probably have left it longer after the merge before going live
except that yesterday was a a hack day when we had lots of people in one
place and ready to fix issues and such like so it seemed like a sensible
time to do it.
What difference would it have made to you to have been told a specific
date and time? That's not an attempt to be nasty or anything, it's a
genuine question so we can try and do things better in the future.
If we have announced it would go live at 11am yesterday what things
would you have done differently as a result?
