Are you serious? Windows 7 was in beta and RC publically for a very long time. Thats just lazy in my opinion.

- rbanffy 16y agoOf course I am. If a new release of Gnome broke some code of yours (that sticks to documented APIs and worked fine on the previous release), you would file a bug, regardless of the fact you could have downloaded and built everything from their version control on a daily basis to test, even automatically. Why should we treat Microsoft any different? Even if I detected the problem in the first public alpha, I would file a bug. If the code sticks to the API rules and a new release of the OS broke it, it's the OS that's buggy, not your code. If the OS maker doesn't fix the bug using the "you should have tested" excuse I question how much it respects its users and developers.
