And that makes a huge difference - because before they used to give
faster
updates before their rapid release system. For example, when 5.5
came out, then
5.5.1.... 5.5.5 fairly rapidly. However, now when there are bugs
(and its
amazing how many and how obvious there are) it will be the next
quarter at least
before the update occurs, and by then your update plan may have
expired. So
yes, they need to get on these things more promptly.

Rapid Releases- Each release an upgrade with fixes and new features.
2005r1 - 6/13/05
2005r2 - 7/29/05
2005r3 - 9/13/05
2005r4 - 10/5/05
2006r1 - 1/10/06
2006r2 - 4/7/06
2006r3 - 7/5/06
I'll let you decide if the fixes have dropped off or the releases not
as frequent.
