took a mike and sang:

Here, allow me to fix it. I wrote "==", while I meant ">".
 
1. code, code, code.
2. release BETA
3. test.
4. if number_of_bugs_found > 0  go to 1  else go to 5
5. RELEASE
6. go to 1

Now, please tell me, why isn't your team's development scheme like
this? Why do you release versions after versions, even if you KNOW
there are still KNOWN and REPORTED bugs in them, and it's usually the
users who report the bugs, so they'll have to live with them even
longer, seeing version after version, with the bugs they reported
still unfixed? Do you think they will be happy with that?

With many programs, it's common to see new versions every several
months, but good versions, worthy of upgrading to. Why does The Bat
have a new version every several weeks, with more and more bugs -
okay, some get fixed, but more get added, along with new features?

>  :) Our cycle is correct! :))

Jokes aside, please, I think this is serious matter.
