Hi Sean,

I think that kind of aspirational statement, particularly in the world of software development, is the kind of thing to be really pleased and surprised about if it actually happens within 12 months of the estimate. In my book it certainly doesn’t qualify as a lie.  To anticipate features for a commercial product in development would need  a seriously strong and informed insider steer.  No consolation, I appreciate, but if anyone should be in a position to understand the particular challenges of software development, it must be other developers.

Which kind of reminds me about my last mail…. paying for Windows SuperCard and waiting for it to arrive.  I was SO wound up about that.  Weirdly now, it is a fond memory.


Best Wishes,
David Glasgow
