IIRC, most of the updates were for KDE, mainly bugfixes, and of course
the LG-crap-CDROM-frying-kernel I guess. I didn't see a lot of people on
the MDK lists complaining, in fact quite the opposite. No "core"
functionality was broken that I'm aware of at all. The response time,
really, should be commended, considering, as Austin points out, the
resources are mainly volunteer testers/package maintainers and not much
else.
