debugged != working (for all cases of "working")

Debugged just means that it works in each case the developer thought of/tested.

What you really want is 100% comprehensive use case based regression testing...and then you have to be sure that your tests actually do cover all code paths. A very nice ideal, but consider that the dev team consists of exactly 2 individuals, only one of which does logic programming.

...so, any news on the new "developer daemon" summons in the next release for Jomon? :-)
