Rudamentary unit testing occurred as part of 1.7's preview process, but it would be nice if such testing happened at all levels.

Geekspeak, CoKo. It means they test each individual feature to check that it works right before adding it to the rest of the code.

So, wait, they don't test the new pieces before they put them into the mix?
Christ, even I do that, and I'm an idiot building a ridiculously simple system. Maybe I'm missing something. _____________________

There's so much wrong with the way that LL develop and *cough* test *cough* that it's going to take a fundamental change of mentality in the offices to alter. That's not easy when people are used to the current regime of working.
What concerns me, is that after 1.5 (I think it was) the issue of QA was discussed at length and LL made some statements saying that they agreed QA was needed and they were putting it in place and that things would get better. Erm............... _____________________

EGGY!
If you don't stop spelling my name that way, I'm going to start calling you ICKY instead of the nice, fond names I do call you, like Mr. Egg, or the Egg. I mean it! "CoKo" is not something well-intentioned, I can tell that. If you want me to stop being fond of you, I will be happy to try to oblige - as much as I can. But if you AREN'T purposely trying to make me dislike you and unhappy with you, then please do me the honor of spelling my name correctly, because it looks like a put-down. After all, I trained myself to spell Cristiano's name so well that I can't even type the "H" in Christian properly anymore. I did that to make Cristiano happy, though it didn't seem like a very big deal to me. If you are going out of you way to deliberately mispell my name in the effort to make me UNhappy, I will be happy to put you down on the "enemies of Coco" list, if that's what you are trying to accomplish, whether or not I can manage to feel enmity or disdain toward you. Just stop spelling my name this way! I get the message already! coco _____________________

All very well for people to have a sig that exhorts you to 'be the change' - I wonder if it's ever occurred to them that they might be something that needs changing...?

Kritter calls me "oeuf"... I find it rather endearing  I mean it! "CoKo" is not something well-intentioned, I can tell that. CoKo == Co(coanut) Ko(ala) I'm sorry if you think I'm making fun of you or something... I don't mean anything by it. I often call Catherine Cotton "CatCot", and Kris Ritter "Kritter"... but HEY if you really hate it I will try to keep that in mind when I need to say your name  _____________________
