Hey David -
I'm not trying to be confrontational here but 5 minutes to find your
login info (which can be saved by your browser for future trips to
QCC) seems like a small sacrifice to make in order to log information
on a bug that is important to you.
Its just too many steps relying on limited feedback and
resources from RunRev - the list is really the only thing that works
because
of the choice of Bugzilla and the lack of easy integrate feedback
integrated
into the environment - a Revolution IDE should have "crowd sourcing"
built
in.
I think that regardless of what improvements could be made to the
Quality Control Center it is important to use the system that we
actually have. It is by no means inadequate for the task at hand and
can be used to get information to the development team on how to
improve the product. I know from experience that the folks at Rev look
at the reports and fix them when possible. And their responsiveness to
reports in QCC over the last few months has greatly improved as well.
I hope that just because there are some lingering bugs that may have
the wrong status or haven't been publicly addressed people don't
abandon the system entirely.
One more thing to add relating to this and the RunRevLive conference
(excellent by the way) I just returned from earlier this week. I have
never walked away from one of the Revolution conferences as confident
in the company as I did this one. There were a number of people from
the company there that we (the attendees) could stop in the hall and
chat with about all things Rev. I think 2.9 created a lot of positive
momentum for Revolution as a development tool and the company seems to
be in a position to build on that momentum. If you have stuff you want
to see fixed or improved then I think now is the best time ever to let
them know about it.
