It doesn't make it right or wrong, but after many years in the computer industry I've learned that only one thing is for certain, you can only introduce a bug if you make a change. No change doesn't mean no bugs, it just means no new bugs. (The ones you don't know about yet don't count.)

Since I'm not doing the work, my opinion serves only as feedback to those who are, so please don't give it any more weight than it deserves. >Melvin Backus wrote: >> >>As I recall being discussed before when this topic came up, there are >>apparently some modules, the syslog one comes to mind, which don't play >>well in at least some environments.
