[quote user="Chris Bové"]Software development isn't as fast as taking a hammer to a nail, and so that's the team that has finally this year been able to roll-out many of the changes and fixes on the list... and there's still more work to do.[/quote] Nothing personal Chris, But that didn't stop your employer from rolling
