From: | | John Adams |
Almost every upgrade of any size for any piece of software introduces bugs and outages -- this is part of the cost of doing business.
The question is whether the new features of an upgraded product are sufficient to justify the _added_ cost and trouble of an upgrade.
Having been through a couple of bleeding-edge upgrades (at a customer site where edges were not strictly required for vendor blood to be
shed), I agree with you that they aren't great fun. On the other hand, they were some of the most useful professional experiences I've
had.
Selfish, I know, but that's
