The programmer is really dragging his feet on completing the software update. He's expressed to me the difficulty in finding the time to complete the work, so I'm in the middle of working things out with him to get things completed. The other option is to have my new programmers work on it, but I hoped to avoid this as it usually takes a long time for new programmers to understand the programming source code, and new programmers are much more likely to make accidental changes that affect the rest of the software. Either way a decision will be made today IF he is unable to guarantee his time this week.
