Yeah, I don't understand what took them so long - rediculous. They did update the interface a bit, though.

Did they have to rewrite all 14,000+ pages for each package? That would explain the delay.

Heh, umm no. They are automatically generated.

The reason it took so long is because they were performing an exhaustive security audit. If you want to do it right, it will take a while.
