Most of what I want to say about this posting was said in private. However a couple things I will go public with. Zortech has nothing to hide. If you want to see our bug reports subscribe to the Zortech mailing list. I will post the new bugs reported to 'zortech-bugs@proto.com' to the list once a month. That will prevent my real concern, wasteing net bandwidth with issues that most people probably aren't interested in and can get in a more direct manner elsewhere. I challenge our competitors to do the same. Bug reports will be posted on the 15th. Subscribe now if you want to see it. > If seeing bug reports for your products posted to the net bothers you, I > believe that there is a simple solution. It's called testing. Ron knows better. Complete testing of a program with as many possible inputs and outputs as a compiler has no practical "simple solution". --- Zortech mailing list: send email to 'ztc-list-request@uunet' with: Add: your-user-name@your-machine-name In the body of the message. --- Send Zortech bug reports to 'zortech-bugs@proto.com' --- Zortech is my major source of income. Statements about them or their competitors cannot be totally without bias. -- joe@proto.com FAX: 208-263-8772
