Pride observation
« on: February 01, 2016, 06:12:40 pm »
Apparently, according to the forum Latest news section, as of build 1226, Sparx Systems stopped being proud of the new EA releases...  ;)

The language for the last two releases is more muted...

Just an observation.

Funny,

But in fact I feel like it should be the other way around.
These last two builds I've seen 7(!) of the bugs I reported recently fixed.

Feels like the old days again when we had a build every two or three weeks, and a bug often got fixed within a month.

Keep at it Sparx, you're on a roll :)

I agree...

But I think the more muted language is more appropriate than the somewhat more over-blown florid prose previously.

Keep up the bug fixes!

I don't know about the language used in announcements, but I have always been proud of what we produce. I don't know of anyone here that isn't.

There has been a special effort to release rapid patches after 12.1. I'm glad to hear it's appreciated.

The phrase "proud to announce" is one you'd expect to hear when announcing an impending baby or marriage.  Maybe the EA baby has just grown up.
