I'm wondering the same thing. I've seen very few bug reports, and most
of those are to do with the init scripts. I've been waiting to collect
enough bugs to make it worth doing another release, but there just hasn't
been that much. I'll probably kick another release out soon anyway,
just to see what happens.
It certainly works well for me on a daily basis.

I don't really understand exactly how people expect the whole NIS
maps stuff to work, so I've been hesitant to apply init script patches
(particularly since they're often cast in terms of "this fixes my NIS
problems and adds support for yet another obscure distribution). I'd love
to work out how to either make the init script distro independent,
or factor all the common stuff out rather than having a duplicate for
each distro.
