There is no reason for panic. The problems that were around at that time were mostly fixed within the month. When you get a message that updating is available, waiting a week is more that sufficient. Any problems in the program surface within hours of that update, since many of us want the newest and best, and are verbal about the new 'bug'. Besides, the last one that affected data was in early L5 (?) or earlier, so your data (which is backed up anyway) will be safe. I read the problems, but since they were in reports I didn't use anyway, I avoided going there until fixed. You can check the archives to see which (if any) are pending now.
