Break The Build

Britney Month continues! Dave Steinberg once again joins me as, with tongue planted firmly in cheek, we salute the people (ourselves included!) who've helped keep the M5a tradition alive.

Break The Build

It’s been a year
I know I shouldn’t be all that surprised
But it's here now


I know it’s been a while but we're here again
And I’ve been thinking 'bout how we play this game
We've got the servers spinning like a hurricane
I can't believe we're going through this again
Never test soon enough, so M5a is up!

Bridge:
(Ooh) looks like M5a now (Ahh)
You'd think we'd'a learned this by now (Ahh)
(I'ma hit respin on ya), let's get it blazin' (Uh-huh)
We can tweak the maps, if you wanna (Ahh)
Up the version nums, if we gotta (Ahh)
Just wanna M5 but it's too late
That's what I’m saying


Chorus:
Looks like we broke the build
Got some bugs unfulfilled
Won’t you respin for me
Baby, I can fix the bits (right, right, right, right)
Looks like we broke the build
Nobody is thrilled
Won’t you respin for me
Baby, I can fix the bits (right, right, right, right)

So you beta test yet?



We've all been hypnotized
We've all been here before
Gotta do things better next year for E4
Can you rise to the occasion (Ahh)
Early tests, no waiting (Ahh)
'Cause it’s getting late and there's been enough
4 years of M5a

Bridge

Chorus

D'you like this part?
No

Feels like tradition?
Yeah
Pooh

Chorus x 2

It's M5, Bitch

EMF 2.5.0M5 is out today, which of course being such a prestigious milestone requires a dance number.

Today's musical selection comes to us from Dave Steinberg, author of the EMF Book. Have you ordered a copy (or two!) for your loved ones yet? Valetines' Day is just around the corner, people!

Gimme More (EMF)

(It's EMF bitch)
(We see your data)
(And we just want you to model it)

Every time we do a release
Just wanna go that extra mile for you
Fix every little defect
And add in some more features too (for you)

Can't go to town like there's no one around
Gotta keep it stable (Gotta keep it stable)
Gotta keep it stable (Keep it stable)
Test all combinations, of code generation
You keep downloading (You keep downloading)
Downloading

Community is saying

Gimme gimme more
Gimme more
Gimme gimme more
x4

A centre of attention (Can you feel them?)
Even when we're one of thirty-odd
It's the pride of the the Eclipse Foundation
Release coordination (uh-uh)
It's leaving the station (oh)

Cracking the whip, so that we will all ship
Galileo (Galileo)
Galileo, leo (oh ah ha)
Must-dos abounding, Bugzillas compounding
Gotta meet those milestones (Meet those milestones)
Those milestones

The planning council's saying

Gimme gimme more
Gimme more
Gimme gimme more
x4

Eclipse Bugzilla traffic

Apparently I'm the only person having a 'Benylin Day' today with this nasty cold SWMNBN brought home last week. Seems that Eclipse Bugzilla activity is up insanely high - I just opened two bugs and in the intervening 10 minutes, 330 other bugs were opened too. If I didn't know better, I'd think it was M5a season.
