Jump up on soapbox with flame thrower!

It makes my blood boil when "easy to fix" bugs are not fixed because they are not high priority problems. There is nothing more frustrating than having to put in "temporary" work around code forever. Rediscovering the same bug over and over again in the user community makes Rev appear to be a far less bug free product than it is. But what really irks me is when a new release breaks something that used to work, and because it is not a "high priority", the fix gets delayed for many months. A priority list also needs to take into account the cost to fix in time, AND the cost in reputation.

Flame off.

Of course I have to concede that Rev has taken note of the impact of bugs recently, and at the strong urging of their users, has made a major push against the little demons in the latest release. I hope this priority placed on dousing this latest release with liberal quantities of bugicide will continue in future. Perhaps every new feature release can be followed by a major bug fix release to keep the momentum up on having a clean environment.

Hi Jim,

Bugzilla #2764 (June 2005) entered by Sarah.
Bug noted as "new" but a quick test with older versions of Rev show
that this bug was present since the introduction of the
revSpeechVoices function (Rev 2.0).
Does not help at all :-(

Thanks Eric. That's a long wait to fix something that would so easy to fixed.

But it would also be hard to think of a bug with a lower priority.

Jim
