Re: 9.40 buggy!
Madison Pruet disputed a claim, relayed from Rich Campbell, that tech support was fixing 30 bugs a week in 9.40, saying the real number is under 5 patches. John Carlson and Paul Watson joked about it, and Pruet clarified he meant bug patches integrated. Light banter, no technical resolution.

I don't know who in tech support told you that. The actual number is more like < 5. We get an email for every bug that is integreated into the product. I may be getting a whole bunch of emails, but I know that I'm not getting 30 emails a week indicating bug fixes. ;-)
