it’s beginning to look a lot like ivy

What I thought was going to be a slow week in Philadelphia turned out to be quite interesting with little fixes and bugs that needs squashing in our application. You can test something over and over but you won’t know what people will find when you turn it over to a giant user population. We had some lazy guy entering a birthdate in as 1/1/1111 or something like that. That’s a valid date and it turns out our application doesn’t like dealing with people who are over 999 years old. Oops. That’s fixed. Everything else was just unexpected scenarios and odd behavior that we had to lock down. It’s fun doing that stuff. I believe I’m on the project until at least June 2006, so we’ll see what we’ll see. Philadelphia. Ahhh.
