- I know the rope is slipping through my hands. #
- I try to spend some time each day looking at fixing bugs, but I have to move forward on other fronts too, and I only spend about 4-5 hours working on this stuff every day. Any more than that is a waste of time, I lose productivity, burn myself out, am unhappy and eventually it makes me sick. Not that you wanted to know all that. ;-)#
- Sometimes I can't dig in because I don't understand what happened, because (honestly) the reports are not well specificed, or well written. People can help out by trying to get reproducible steps, that makes it a quicker job for me, more likely to result in a fix, rather than wasted time. #
- Sometimes I can't dig in because I just can't get there. Esp problems in Concord, the core outliner. It is open source, so other people can work on that. #
- PS: One of the things on my todo list is to update the Concord repo with my latest fixes.#
