However, I can think of some for whom I need could use a show/hide feature.

I resemble that remark! [:@] [;)]

I do have one serious suggestion. You have a very broad skill set in your users - far broader than you can ever have in your testers. If you were to develop a test scenario form and ask the beta testers to suggest tests to you, I suspect you could develop a solid test set built on actual use rather than basic and theoretical testing. The chief advantage? Errors that remain in the code would be less likely to be errors effecting major user groups. Usage statistics tell you what we use but not why we use it. We can tell you why and what we expect as results.

Ay, there's the rub. If the product had been properly tested and fleshed out, then Logos support wouldn't have been overwhelmed.

"The product was not ready.

Hmmm....I guess there is room for all kinds of perspectives on this issue.

For me, even running the beta from the start....It's been a great piece of software....I'm of the opinion that I'm glad that they released it knowing that features were on their way (rather than wait) because It's been a real blessing to me, and the issues I've had? Pale in comparison to the enjoyment and usefulness of the software itself.

I've repeatedly installed and uninstalled the software, rebuilt the index, deleted and reindexed...I've formatted my laptop numerous times....dumped the resource folders on purpose, let the app download all of my resources....all in the name of putting it through its paces...and still...I'm thankful that I have it in hand and not the other way around.

It's funny how we can look at one event and come to radically different conclusions... [:D]

Very true Robert. I appreciate your even-handedness in this regard.

It's a scary thing to agree with Robert, but I agree with Robert [8-|]. At first, I thought L4 was a disaster, but that thought was fleeting. I like it, and I am glad it was released when it was.

For the record, I DO NOT agree with Robert, even though I do agree with what he said here [:P] (Humor)

I don't have the history that you guys do with the private beta, but there were a couple of times I was frustrated with L4Win so I reloaded L3 and Mac 1.xx. Needles to say, after working with them for an hour or so, I went back to L4. Ditto on the release date. (No, this is not a slam against L3, L4 is more powerful for the way I work)

It seems to me that with the number of pre-pub (Zondervan) about to go out Logos' virtual door it would behoove them to get 4.0b with its merge index fixes out the door or if they can't get it up to quality standards soon, roll those indexer fixes into another SR for 4.0a.

Logos should consider that waiting until after 4.0b is released is a better time.
