If something isn't working for you, I want to know! In fact, unlike |
|
|
|
some developers who don't want to be deluged with bugs, I heartily encourage |
|
|
|
users to send me all their problems. Why? I love bugs, |
|
|
|
and I have experience working in Quality Assurance, so I know that a |
|
|
|
program like gbootroot is loaded with glitches unforeseen |

by the developer. I consider |

a bug anything which effects the user negatively, |

If something isn't working for you, I want to know because you have probably |
|
|
|
found a bug. Don't fall |
|
|
|
into the trap that makes you believe that developers don't want to be deluged |
|
|
|
with bugs, quite to the contrary. developers love to receive bugs, |
|
|
|
and I heartily encourage all users to send Free Software developers all their |
|
|
|
problems. |
|
|
|
I have experience working in Quality Assurance, and I know that a |
|
|
|
program with the complexity of gbootroot is a perfect recipe for |
|
|
|
the existence of all types of bugs. As a developer focusing on the |
|
|
|
deployment of code it is easy for bugs to slip by unoticed. |
|
|
|
Free Source software depends on users sending in bugs if the software is |
|
|
|
to ever experience rapid development; users shouldn't leave this process |
|
|
|
to the developers, because this guarantees that they will need to spend lots |
|
|
|
of time in the testing phase rather than spending time adding great |
|
|
|
new features. |

bugs. |

I consider a bug anything which effects the user negatively, |

whether it is a user interface (UI) which is hard to understand |
|
|

or use, documentation which seems misleading, or if the program doesn't |

seem to deliver results as it should. Even if you think |
