[QUOTE="Rhys.Goodwin, post: 161612, member: 27017"] I think a bug submission system could be useful as a secondary system to manual bug reports, like a measuring tool to see if something common was occurring regularly across the board. But after using both MediaPortal and TVserver for for about a year and I can say that they are [B]extremely[/B] stable [B][U](In terms of crashes) [/U][/B]. The bugs being reported almost all of the time are [B]not[/B] crash bugs they are logic bugs, which are a symptom of a project that is moving very fast; which is a very good thing; hey we don't want a "Debian like" htpc app do we? I'm no coder but I don't think logic bugs have crash dumps! I think as the number of half decient feature requests/requirements start to subside that's when the product will be come more and more bug free. The problem is everyone wants all the features and no bugs and they want it now! If I had the choice between rapid development with bugs and [B]very[/B] slow development with zero bugs I'd choose rapid development. Maybe that's just me? btw is there a long term or even short term roadmap showing where the project is going and who is working on what, something like that might show other potential developers where they could slot in or pick something up. Or even reuse code they already have? [/QUOTE]
