Mar 16, 2013 at 1:41 comment added Andres F. Um, in our industry "production" doesn't mean "final, deliverable product" and I've never heard it used like that. It means "has gone live, and is being used to accomplish the business purpose it was built for". It may or may not be "final"; that's orthogonal.

Apr 14, 2011 at 17:32 comment added Niklas H The word "production" refers to the production of bug reports, which you will receive plenty of, when you go live.
