For me 4.0.1 was a big disappointment. The much vaunted update of the Unihan

Mandarin, Cantonese, Korean and Japanese readings.

BTW, in case anybody's wondering, I've been working with Andrew privately to get these issues resolved.
John,
In a database of 1,047,571 records (when last I checked) errors are bound to turn up now and again. As more and more informative data gets added, it's going to need fixing sometimes.
Far from being disappointed, I commend you for your tirelessness in this thankless task. Unihan will never be more than what people make of it. You have clearly made a lot of it.
