I was surprised about the r2 as well, I had no idea a new SDK was out,
so I tried to look into a few things and found out a new ADP1 image is
out too

JBQ talks about the ADP1 image over on the Android-DevPhoneUpdating
group 
http://groups.google.com/group/Android-DevPhone-Updating/browse_thread/thread/d42ce38cf5d5497f

It looks like the SDK 1.5r2 tag in git made by Dianne Hackborn
mentions the same security issue
http://android.git.kernel.org/?p=platform/frameworks/base.git;a=commit;h=f5b70ef0f244eec1dc3642e05f555598de84e98a

I am speculating here but maybe this is why the G1 cupcake ota was
pushed back for people in the US, and it might explain the small ota
update that the UK cupcake peoples have been getting

Here is a page describing the security problem (taken from JBQ's post)
http://www.ocert.org/advisories/ocert-2009-006.html

It looks like Google was trying to not really announce the new image
as to attract as little attention about the security update as
possible?  But then again they did all of this updating out in the
open via the git comment and JBQs post, so that is definitely good of
them

If there are any other differences in the SDK r2 or the new ADP1 image
I would be very interested in learn about them
