Hi Gerry

Users come to me with issues and I handle them, instead of "pulling" a programmer off what they are doing, interupting their current train of thought, and having them visit a program they may have been working on a month or more ago. It's simply more efficient this way.

Ah. We are talking about different things here. The reason I like the 'weekly build' approach is that new functionality can be checked for bugs immediately and fixed by the developer whilst still fresh. I absolutely that it is better to keep the primary development team moving forward though.
