Maybe the worst part had something to do with the system for starting applications. There was some need for a lot of goat sacrifices and praying to get that part working properly
Beware though, I'm a "grumpy all man" when it comes to these matters. I know stuff sucks when everybody else thinks it is "great". I knew CVS sucked when it was the only show in town
NOBODY thought CVS sucked back then, it was all "you don't understand it" back then. Now everyone knows Git>SVN>CVS, and that CVS is not at all good. Btw, I ment old, not all in parent
