Well, we built and uploaded 2.6.14-1 in under 6 hours, including full x86
and powerpc builds, and various configure options fixes nad whatnot. It had to
pass NEW though; and thus was delayed by an hour, but was in incoming around
12-18 hours after we where initially made aware of this, and hope to better
this process for future releases.
