Don, thanks for having explained how not to do betatesting :-)
Seriously, if you rely on normal usage to do discover all kind of bugs, then you're basically making a public betatesting session.
Of course the more people the more bugs get discovered in the same amount of time, however it's also true that the more time you betatest, the more bugs get discovered with the same amount of people, simply because what matters is the total usage time.
We can thus say that AOS4 is in an early betatesting phase, still. Public betatesting, even. |
