| Dec 9, 2016 at 12:13 | comment | added | Mike Sherrill 'Cat Recall' | @Giorgio: "Won't break on Friday" is understood. A Thursday release that breaks on Friday would a) ruin "read-only Friday", and b) ruin the weekend (see "a"). "Won't break on Friday" is superflous; a real Mozart of acronyms would omit it. | |

| Jan 6, 2015 at 9:25 | comment | added | Giorgio | @Mike Sherrill 'CatRecall': Maybe one should extend that to WTSTWCDTUWCROTAWBOF = "What's the simplest thing we can do that's useful, we can release on Thursday and won't break on Friday?" ;-) | |

| Sep 20, 2011 at 11:54 | comment | added | Mike Sherrill 'Cat Recall' | I used exactly the letters I needed--no more and no less. In that way, I'm kind of like Mozart. Yep. I'm the Mozart of acronyms. | |
