I spent most of three seasons using XCS for US contests. On Ipaq 3950s to start, later on Dell Streak 5. Nine or ten contests IIRC. Something important was always busted in software. Start rules, AAT task optimizer, little things :-/. I wrote lots of trouble tickets. Some got acted on right away, some never.


Some never? The following points to a exhaustive list of all of your tickets we havn't worked on yet:

This is exactly one ticket, one that can't be any less serious.

Yes, you found a lot of problems over the years (totalling 24), and that was your contribution to a better XCSoar, it helped a lot. Thousands of eyes find thousands of problems in such a complex software (nearly 26,000 users on Android alone). We do our best to deliver high quality to all those pilots, and we need input from people like you.

But please be honest. I know you want to drop some advertisement for your employer, but don't exaggerate the severity and number of open bugs.
