Last Friday, the 20,000th bug was entered into our tracking database. As Christopher commented when we reached bug 10,000, this industrial-scale error generation is not cause for recrimination. Quite the reverse, it is time to celebrate.
By that logic, it should be a double celebration: we've doubled our rate of bug creation. Mint's first 10,000 bugs took 26 months, the second 10,000 took under 14 months.
To get this online party started we are holding a prize sweepstake. Guess the date Mint hits bug 30,000 to win (enter in the comments below).
The prize is fumigation for life.

July the 11th. A double celebration, England win the World Cup (after beating the US in qualifying) and we have bug 30k. I don't think I will be able to contain my excitement.

31st August. of note, if you are a born on this day in Britain you are almost certainly the youngest person in your academic year-group and are consequently academically disadvantaged pretty much forever.
