It is a safe assumption that _someone_ will report it properly. Even with very conservative estimates (installed user base in the five digit range, 10% people affected at all, one out of a hundred people willing to properly report an issue) one ends up with a more then 99.9956% chance that it _will_ happen (assuming uniform distributions for a cumulative binomial probability to have at least one "success"). That failure rate is an orders of magnitude lower then for not getting a seat in an airplane if you have a valid ticket, and you do rely on that, don't you? ;-) Andre' _______________________________________________ Qt-creator mailing list [email protected] http://lists.trolltech.com/mailman/listinfo/qt-creator
