Hi Mary,

ah now we are talking about me. ;-) We should talk about TB, not about me.
But I don't have a problem with that. See, I'm not experiencing a burn-out
syndrome as betatester and I don't feel pain about the bugs I still see in
the program. It's more like I'm considering myself useless because nobody
deals with cosmetic issues and I'm a chicken-hearted betatester and always
wait some hours and the first reports of the fearless testers until I
upgrade to a new version. So for me most of the time the non showstopper
stuff is left. I participate in this group sind 1.6x I think and I often
saw it happen like this. Cosmetic issues aren't important enough to delay a
new final version. Complains from the whole betagroup are not enough
important to delay a new final version. Sometimes I'm also missing real
project coordination. Meaning for example that features are promised within
the current release cycle (1.x, 2.x, 3.x) and were not implemented
(partially not until now) or somehow implemented but not really working but
other new and somehow spontaneous features are implemented and mainly
effect whole beta cycles.

But to make one thing clear: TB is still and always THE mail client for me
even if it looks like a giant construction site to me at the moment.

Also I want to be sure that I'm understood the right way: All my compliment
to the programmer team of TB. I'm complaining about development priorities
set by Ritlabs.

But with one thing you're absolutly right: Writing about things I'm not
happy with is a relieve. :-)

Regards,
Martin
