That's unfortunate. The customer should always formulate the path. Engineers operate in a closed world. I've run into it many times myself, so this isn't an RL-specific thing. Engineers will spend loads of time developing features that users don't want and never will use, while ignoring things that users actually want. There should be constant communication between the customer and the developer. The customer should say "this is what we want" and the developer should say "okay, this is how long it will take to get there by taking such and such steps". As for beta testing, it's getting a bit old without any real regression testing going on. Every other beta, old "fixed" bugs creep back in, so we just end up reporting the same thing over and over again. -- Kevin ________________________________________________________ Current beta is 3.5.33 | 'Using TBBETA' information: http://www.silverstones.com/thebat/TBUDLInfo.html IMPORTANT: To register as a Beta tester, use this link first - http://www.ritlabs.com/en/partners/testers/
