(Independent of whether it ever worked...) 2) We have to communicate enough information for someone to do some work. 3) The best answer in your case is two things: a) A statement that it worked with this revision and failed with this one, 1 revision apart b) Some backtrace data that shows the failure happening. this identifies the offending code Since having the application is a requirement to get this whole process started there are two options: a) The user does the regression testing b) The user find a demo and then convinces someone nice to do this work for the user. Option a) gets the best results and gets them the fastest. It's up to you. - Mark
