We have daily scrum meetings and we have user stories, and sprints.

I thought that said your meetings relied on spirits.  That didn't seem like a great idea.

Call on the ghosts who created Staff view. They were exorcised years ago....

Fade indicators in the corners of clips have been removed? I use this all the time...
 

Yeah, I don't get why this change either.  I love being able to grab the fade indicators...do it all the time also.

I'd like to hear more about this!  Clips fades is a big part of my editing.  Can't do without them.  I'm already nervous about the upcoming new comping tools.  Comping has just now gotten to where I'm pretty quick with it.
 
Thanks.

I think it is worthwhile highlighting that "release management" apparently includes the discipline of getting end user feedback (both in "early release" phase after the formal beta and in the full release phase). With monthly development, the user feedback is prompt, regular, and specific. That facilitates rapid correction of unexpected problems and timely celebration of successes. Very healthy for the developers, the users, and the overall product. High fives all around for implementing this process. Other companies could learn a lot from you.

Thanks. I can't say that its easy to do but having smaller releases, coupled with the early access program and rollback capability, definitely takes some of the stress and risk out of release cycles. If something is wrong we typically hear about it much sooner and can address it very quickly.
 
More importantly, end users are far more engaged with our software than ever before since they can virtually see it being built before their own eyes. In the past most users didn't even notice half the features we'd put in, since the releases were too big and contained too many new things to learn. This is definitely the way of the future for software development.

"This is definitely the way of the future for software development."

Amen to that - and it has been amazing watching the change

I don't want anyone to get the wrong idea here because I have really liked all the updates except one last year that seemed to be less stable. This one however seems to be a significant cut above other updates. My CPU use is ridiculously low. I'm not sure why either. But that finding is consistent over many projects. So as far as I am concerned counting all the added features that appeared in all the past updates this is like the optimized version. Plus I do like the new plugin browser.  
 
I will be praising CW for the rest of my life due to lifetime updates and delighted each month. Who ever thought this would ever happen. 

its funny, I find about 2 updates ago my performance meter in sonar almost doubled.
however, I haven't noticed any significant deference in performance. still running strong.
but my PM went from reading 13% on almost all heavy projects to now 23% on all heavy projects.
 
so it very well be just my system, or something not being accurate between TM and the PM in SP .
but still AG here GP of the CWF. ;-)
