Re: FCPX from an Editor who used it on Iditarod 2012

[Simon Ubsdell] "I'm sure you're right about the diagnosis but, look, it's Apple we're talking about here - an absolute corporate giant - and they can' get their act together. It's altogether rather pitiful ... or actually quite funny, depending on how you look at it."

I think it's their chosen (yes it's a choice) resource reality. They are doing the best they can I suspect with what resources the department has. That they're moving this quickly is impressive . . . and that it's this sloppy is obviously not. I do think things will get better as they balance things out over time. They are in "hurry up" mode and I think they'll be that way for the rest of this year but I think as they get to a place they're comfortable with in the feature set, they'll be in a better QC state. I don't think "hurry up" mode will last beyond the year (it better not).

[Simon Ubsdell] "I really don't think the "amazing" 10.0.3 features were in any way a response to a listening process"

I think it's impacting prioritization and that's why some things are rushed.
