Pls include build # in your subject header

Between "unofficial" interrim releases and new CTPs, things are going to
start to get confusing. It would be really helpful if people would include
the build numbers as part of their subject header...

Good idea, although in a perfect world, we shouldn't need to do that
because as this is the public newsgroup, people would only be posting
things about 5308 as tech testers would be posting in the tech newsgroups...

Good point. Though, I guess in a really perfect world, s/w would work right
out of the box so no need for beta

You can lead a horse to water, Tester, but you can't get it to drink. Ever
tried to herd cats? This is a public newsgroup, and other than those who
come here regularly to get informmation or give information, very few read
more than it takes to get the answer they want. So, it's a toss-up if anyone
will follow your suggestion.

Nope, someone has to test the code the developers have written. Nobody's
perfect, not even developers.

If they were perfect then then they wouldn't still be developing, unles
it's to some state beyond perfection.
