What I'm not quite sure about is what happens if there is a new version of the library. As it won't show up in HAM, presumably it also won't show up when the user is notified about updates, so the user won't be able to update it. Is this correct?

just go to preferences -> scrolling -> tap on large scrollings, you should see a drop down menu, go to tap scrollings, set msecs @ 100-500, select scrolling mode (i use no overlapping) and make sure scroll on finger tap only is *unchecked*.
now tapping on the (relative) top and bottom halves of the screen should result in page back and page forward respectively. however, use a stylus or your fingernail because pressing with the pad of your finger won't work. also, make sure your taps are deliberate (ie, don't draw a line with the stylus). press and release. and it should scroll.
takes some practice to get used to and it's not 100% reliable unless you use a stylus, which is wy i've switch to using the volume rocker for scrolling

Cheers.
It must just be me.
i cant get it to work at all. Welll not stricktly true. if i tap like a woodpecker i might sometimes get it to change page.
Otherwise im pretty happy as a mobi pocket replacement.
Not been reading as much as it the Holidays, but im really looking forward to getting stuck in, and im sure i'll live with keyboard and vol controls.
and hope that future versions bring a simpler tap scrolling
NEWSFLASH NEWSFLASH
Ive got it working fairly consistantly even with my finger
In the preferences i had the minimum stylus pressure at 0 and max at 100. changing the minimum stylus presure to 20 (10 also seemed ok) really made a difference. Now seems to move forward and back (not that im so fussed with back) with ease

Since im playing around with it and cant seem to find a manual.
The little toggle off full screen symbol appears every time you tap screen
i see i can turn it off but then i got stuck and had to kill it off. So i set a key to do it (ok but not quite what i want)
can i either reduce the desplay time of the symbol from 5s to 2s or can i make it a bit smaller?
cheers again

Sorry, I'm slightly confused here 
The header says this build is in Extras-Devel, but I found FBreader in Extras-Testing, is that a different version?
Is this version one that searches for books out on the Net, or an older version? The one in Testing seemed not to have that feature.

To keep this in prospective, I am a heavy user of FBReader and I still drag my n810 around *just* for FBReader but I do not want it rushed into Extras with issues breaking either Nokia's trust in making Extras available by default or confusing end-users and creating a stigma that this is a platform only for geeks.
I'm curious what others think. In general, at what point should reused code be a library?
