    No piece of software of any complexity can have zero bugs. Which bugs are we talking about. To be honest, CP seems to be working better than it has ever done. How are you reporting the bugs? Emailing Chris or posting them in the suggestions forum? Michael CP Blog [^] Development Blog [^]

    Yes it can! My pet hate is when people make the above statement, it implies that you expect your code to be buggy and already are thinking up excuses for the errors! The main reason for 'buggy' code is cost, to properly design, write and test costs time and money. I used to write software that had to run 24/7, it can be done.

      I'd rather not say. We're discussing this site so that's not relevant.

        No. Have you? Is quality not much of a priority?

                Yes, I have. It isn't a perfect world. Quality is important but understaffed and underfunded is a difficult situation to be in. Chris and the team are trying, believe me, I was there.

                  OK, I can take comfort in the fact that the CP team is aware of the problems and looking to fix them ASAP. Thanks, Alvaro

                                      What's your problem? I just asked a simple question. I wanted to know (from Mike) if it was Paul Watson he was referring to and how he had found out. So again, what's your problem?

                                        Apologies Alvaro, I thought we were talking about why it is important to know who the person really is. I wasn't interogating you. I am genuinely curious why you find it extremely important to know whether I am Paul Watson or not. Curiosity :) regards, Paul Watson Ireland Feed Henry!
