Why do you ask so many questions? :-)))
1/ Because... there is :-)
2/ Because I am. I've been in the IT field for many years, including in beta testing programs before. Have reported many bugs. Have provided dumps, gathered info from versatile systems. Have been dealing with DBs. And have been also tech support. Have written some code (a little) myself.
3/ To contribute to the development and troubleshooting. Anyone can criticize. But it's another thing if you can give a hand in the process of building something. My background and experience can be of good help. I've had criticized enough. But have also provided info on memory leaks previously. Now it is time to assist in avoiding such pitfalls in advance, whenever I can.
4/ Beta testing would let me know from early stage what to expect. Can even happen that a feature based on an idea of mine may appear in next major release (for LR 7, guess it's too late already).
* Can be useful to some extend to midi2lr dev if I find something related to his project.
* Can acquaint myself and later on others on new features to come...
* And let's not forget that I am pretty advanced LR power user (develop module).
* Have tested and tried many things so far. As well as a few alternatives to LR programs. So kind of know me around.
* I am nerd. It means - programs are fun for me. Photographer by day. Nerd by night.
Most importantly tryin' to help!
How about you?
How many white papers have you read? How familiar are you with the ins and outs of CMOS sensors and ADCs? Do you comprehend the significance of the logic where are the amplifiers located within DSLRs circuit board? The differences between RAWs, and DNGs? How many third party firmwares on DSLRs have you installed? How many years have you spent on photoshop? Probably less than me since I am on board since version 3 (that is without the CS). DO you even know the color space of LR at least?
Does any one of us really need to know the other one's answers? For me to be beta tester and for you to be ACP. I think NOT. ;-)
And again why do you ask so many questions? :-)))) I thought ACPs giveanswers ;-)
