I'm sure that what Kenneth *meant* to say was: It's always a risky undertaking to test beta software. Many don't have a different server to test WC4 on. For those that do have another server, do they allocate their resources toward coding WebCat 4 code, which might be buggy and not immediately usable in the real world, or do they continue using the dependable WC3 code for immediate results? It's tough to balance. The choice can be costly in terms of time and money with the risk of failing pages resting solely on the testers' shoulders.It's impossible for SM to easily duplicate the extensive and complex code that many sites use that will cause bugs to surface so they might want to consider a way to relieve some of the burden from the tester.MichaelKGDNR############################################################# This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list
