the GEMS 1.18 series and 4.3 series firmware been certified through
Ciber or Wyle, (been there since May) that doesn't leave us many
options now does it. On the contrary. It appears to me it
leaves you with exactly one option.
Get 1.18 certified. Even if it was, do you
think we should upgrade everyone over to 1.18 in No, I think we should add the feature to
1.17 and bring the whole country down to ITA certifications, state
certifications, and time constraints play a big part in what needs to be done,
and sometimes that means putting fixes or additions back into versions that are
already in use, and resulted in a good election. How exactly do you think these releases
got in a state where they resulted in good elections? Do you think the magic stable release
fairy made them that way? They got
that way because we didn’t allow them to be broken by adding new features. Those who want or need new features upgrade
to the next major release. Those
who don’t sleep well on election night knowing their version wasn’t
broken by some new feature they don’t even care about. Maybe that means one number change in the version, but that's much
easier to get through Wyle, Ciber and the states than submitting a completely
new version (1.17.? to 1.18.?). Easy has nothing to do with it Don. This is not easy. And if Dmitry finished
the Under Five feature on February 19th, why wasn't it included in
the (1.17.23 which was for 1.17.23 is not
