After reading the announcements, I am looking forward to the LiveCode 8 Global 
Jam and helping to prepare LiveCode 8 for release through reporting bugs.

As I’ve already reported a handful of bugs relating to LiveCode 8, I thought 
I’d take a look and see how many LiveCode 8 bugs there are in total. As I 
understand, LiveCode 8.0 is based on LiveCode 7 so I performed a search of the 
LiveCode Quality Centre for all bug reports against version 7.0.0 DP 1 and 
above which are not yet resolved.

I was surprised when the search returned 674 bug reports that met the criteria. 
Perhaps the search criteria I used could be improved. I can see that some of 
the 674 are enhancement requests but I can’t work out how to exclude them from 
the search. From a quick glance, I don’t think that there can be much more than 
50 enhancement requests so there still seems to be at least over 500 unresolved 
bugs.

Hopefully, many will get fixed during the Global Jam (and shortly afterwards) 
as the engineering team focusses on bug fixing rather than adding new 
functionality.

I’m still looking forward to the Global Jam but I’m a little worried that the 
LiveCode 8 release isn’t as close as the Global Jam announcements suggested.
