We have to devote a machine or machines, configure the services, write the pages, test on different platforms, etc. in order to find problems.There should be something beyond or in addition to just firing off betas. Maybe Smith Micro should configure a series of beta machines and set up an incentive system where beta testers are rewarded for upping pages which expose bugs. This would also ease the hardware issue for some of us.I still can't find products that compare to WebCat and it continues to evolve. Smith Micro needs to innovate for the beta process too. ############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
