Right, just bug fixes for a whole lotta bugs which have been keeping some people from upgrading to Chinook. And a new (much better) email client, and a Gecko-based browser coming from upstream equivalent to an FF beta, instead of an early alpha.
  1. We've known for some time
  2. Why is fixing bugs less "substantial" than adding features?
from an earlier message it isn't even clear if the transition from diablo to the (eventual) successor will be possible via apt-get/application manager:

It's not clear only in the sense that they're "working on" it, not already done and lounging around on the beach, so it might not get done if they all drop dead.
