over on a d.p. forum, dkretz said:
I've just taken several EB projects and actually looked at the errors corrected in P1/P2 (they don't get to P3 fast enough to be useful) and most fixes could have been identified and applied in pre-processing, and/or highlighted by better proofing tools in the rounds.
i'd like to thank don for (re-)doing my missionary work. of course, the d.p. "powers that be" have ignored don for as many years as they've ignored me, but since he hasn't pissed them off to the point of _banning_ him, he's still able to fight the good fight against d.p. stupidity. he continues:
We've got to start planning and managing our work better. We've learned so much in the years of our existence; we've learned how much we don't know, but could find out and use for feedback; and it's in our own interest to get smarter about how we do our work.
good luck, mr. kretz... -bowerbird
