I have never known software or firmware where you cannot find a known problem list, somewhere (ie readme files). As a database developer, programmer and support manager of some 25 years that was standard requirement of me. I am not talking here of new developments but rather of known existing

Jim You summarise what the problem is so far as the end user is concerned. We have no information as to when bugs will be fixed. 2 years is far too long! We don't understand the process for prioritisation of bugs. From looking at version fix lists some of the things fixed are very obscure and

It is secrecy. The bug list is not publicly available. Let's get version 8 working correctly before worrying about 9 or are we going to 10 as Microsoft did. Legacy 7 et al was fine. 8 appears to be full of problems. I for one wished I hadn't upgraded as I am not sure what I got apart from

It's not just windows it's every system in operation, including the human brain. The bigger the book the longer it takes to read it. Common sense. It does not need to be documented. If legacy had a limit on size of graphics that would need to be documented but not this. There is no legacy

'Never married' is definitely not the same as 'no relationships' and I am at a loss as to how anyone at Legacy can think it is. If it was changed for political correctness which I suspect, surely 'no legalised relationship' would be better but I suppose that might intimate other relationships
