I recently received a question along the lines of "Hey do you remember [project we did roughly 18 months ago]? What firmware version did we use on the controller?"
Someone just assigned me a Jira issue for a project I haven't been on the team for since at least 2 and a half years ago. We didn't even use Jira when I was on that project.
I feel that. I'm on the design side and have nothing to do with software....once my engineering package (drawings, hardware documentation, etc) is delivered, it's on the shop to program and configure. I wouldn't have known the firmware version even if this was a 2026 project!
