The Day After Ship Day
· by Kjell
The morning after a release is always quieter than you expect. No celebration, just a list of tiny things you noticed the moment the install dialog closed. I spent the first coffee of the day going through reports and scrolling through my own code, looking for the places where I might have missed something.
Most of what went into this patch was the MCP layer - the bridge that lets an assistant actually poke at my library. It's still early, and I'm not entirely sure yet how people will end up using it, but every time I give it one more "verb" to speak, the conversations I can have with my own music get a little richer. That feels worth the effort.
Beyond that, it was the boring work: a handful of minor fixes, a dialog that wasn't closing cleanly, a timing issue in one of the enrichment jobs. Nothing glamorous. Just the kind of small corrections that make the software feel like it has been lived in for a while instead of freshly unboxed. Back to real features tomorrow.
