August,
The issue that you are most concerned about, i.e. the SubjectMarks page, was resolved. We made changes to the page, so that SubjectMarks w/messages load before SubjectMarks w/o messages. We also fixed a bug that was limiting the total number of SubjectMarks that showed on the page. These changes were published a while ago.
In fact, I was quite surprised and concerned to receive your message today that these problems had resurfaced. So, I checked with the engineering team right away. Sure enough, we published some additional changes to the site last night, and in so doing, somehow wiped out the fixes to the SubjectMarks page. The engineers explained how and why this happened, and how and why it would not ever happen again. I'd like to try to explain it to you, but frankly that technical stuff makes my eyes glaze over and my brain hurt. Suffice to say that the "AugustWest feature" will be restored as quickly as possible, and I personally apologize for the inconvenience.
As far as canning my SI Engineering team is concerned, I can assure you that won't be happening anytime soon. You are, of course, entitled to your own opinion, but I can tell you that the SI Engineering team is an outstanding group of developers. I am proud and pleased to have them working on SI. And one day, hopefully, you will be too.
Thanks,
Bryan |
