Unless you can show me some more people that didn't get it, at which point I could possibly admit that I'm just wierd, I can't in good faith and honesty say I think post 17 is misleading.

Then I'd say I know all I need to know about discussing tech with you.

That post has a clear, deliberate meaning. It was an attempt to say that 8 weeks of coding was migrated in 8 hours.

You claim it did *not* mean coding, but an entire project. It *said* coding, and the topic was coding. But you don't think it meant coding.

Got it.

And you still feel it's an "insult" to say that you feel another tech might have been a better choice.

I think the backpeddling has just lead you off a cliff.

If you actually read what people write instead of turning everything into a personal attack you'd live longer.

How many times can I say this to you. I read his post 17 and I understood what he meant, his answers to your questions jived 100% with how I read the original post. How can I say something that made perfectly good sense to me was misleading? I'm not "claiming" anything. I read it and that's what I immediately understood.

And let's not pretend you were just suggesting a different tech. You said he wasted his employer's resources, then accused him of being a paid shill of MS out. Then you said he wasn't a good coder which is why you changed his 2 week Java estimate to 2 days. Those aren't suggestions Dominic, those are insults on his character skill and professionalism.

What backpeddling. I've been here all day saying the same thing: I understood post 17 clearly. And every other post you say I'm backpeddling. My feet are firmly in the ground, I understood it, if you didn't that's not his fault.

Oh, and let's not forget he specifically mentioned test in the very first line. 8 weeks of code AND TEST. I notice you're quite fond of shaving those last two words off, tells me a lot about the stability of your products.
