T Quote: Good point. Maybe in this case only - at least rate the report. If we get 2,000 ratings (all 5s) and 2 votes it'll still be a nice message. ;) Anders Ohlsson, Reading your last posts I get the feeling you're trying to get as many votes possible to be able to move the bureaucracy rock. If this is the case why not send out an email to everybody who has signed up for the Delphi/BDN newsletter asking them to check out QC and if they have a bug they want fix to vote on it? (and maybe remind them of these discussions over here, they may a better chance at identifying bug numbers) Back to top Anders Ohlsson (Borland) Guest Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2003 2:45 am    Post subject: Re: If you want a D7 Patch, please go and vote for QC5750.

T Just an update for those who haven't voted yet, but since this report was opened it's become the highest voted report in the Delphi project in QC, with a very respectable 146 votes (of which, 1 is mine). I won't advocate people who have already used all their votes going and moving all their votes to this report, but if you can at least rate it a 5, and if possible, find your lowest priority voted report and move a vote from it to this report, we might see it breaking 200 votes before the afternoon today (Pacific time). =) BTW, here's a web-based QC URL for those wanting to go that route-- http://qc.borland.com/wc/wc.exe/details?reportid=5750 (You will be prompted to login or create an account, depending on if you've ever used QC before.)

I think the reason for the low ratings total is explainable though-- people are taking *all* their votes and putting them on this report (all 5), but they can only rate the report *once*. =) My suggestion to those who signed up JUST to vote for this report would be to search through some of the reports by a keyword for something that you might find interesting (or, go to Query | Top Voted) and find some reports you might want to put a vote or two towards (taking away from this report, unfortunately, but at the same time, given the total number of votes this report has gained in just a day or so, having your votes on actual bugs would be great for the time when something is done about this report).

Ahh, as appears to be the consensus so far from a users point of view with regard to Delphi 7 updates-- more would be better. I'm glad this may make a difference in a way, going a year with nary a full blown patch in site after swallowing a large price increase (even for upgraders) is kind of difficult to deal with. =) Will Back to top Leonel Guest Posted: Thu Aug 28, 2003 10:07 pm    Post subject: Re: If you want a D7 Patch, please go and vote for QC5750.
