Learning by doing

The proof is in the pudding they say. Or if you want eat "your own dogfood". Last week one of our principle developers (Ward Bekker) started using GenWise on a project for a new customer. It was an interesting experience to see someone who developed several years on GenWise get started with the tool himself. Some of the immediate lessons:
- Hey i've never seen that bug before...
- Wouldn't it be handy if...
- Yee, that part is really slow...
- Can't we...
- Should we not...

Needless to say our bug and feature tracking system is filling quite nicely!

What' s up at GenWise ?

Next week we are giving a GenWise course for customers in Maarssen. We are quite exited, since they will use our latest internal build named 1.09. If after the course the software is stable enough we will release it probably in the week after. 1.09 contains many bug fixes, more stability and numerous small enhancements. After 1.09 we will aim for 1.1. This release contains all that we had originally planned for 1.1.
Also 1.09 will contains the 1.2 GA release of NHibernate and is tested with that version.

People attending the course will get a free GenWise version. We hope that this will encourage people to start using GenWise after the course directly.
