females? Females remain as they are, no MCEs until maturedate, but males
just cannot have MCE’s prior to age 4 (and Bozo was 5 in 1996 so he would
then be in the clear). Btw, parts is a very funny name for that table…</span></p>

</div><div class="im"><p>Ok, so here's the problem:</p>
<p> </p>
<p>Once upon a time it was only females that had rows in
MATUREDATES.</p>
<p>We gave males maturity dates without updating the rules.</p>
<p>So, all the error messages say "female", and
none of the checks take sex into account. Or at least those checks that
are done when the MATUREDATES table is updated. On the PARTS table only
the females are checked against MATUREDATES.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>So, a male can have a row entered in PARTS and be part of
an MCE interaction without having his maturity date checked but when it comes
time to update his maturity date the system does check MCE interactions and we
get an error.</p>
<p> </p>
<p>We need a review of the maturity date rules vis males.</p>
<p>Or maybe a re-review and I need to double check the code</p>
<p>to make sure it corresponds to the written
rules. This</p>
<p>could just be a regular old bug and nothing nefarious
regards our decision to give males rows on MATUREDATES.</p>
