I've compared the March 30 FBL pdf with the Dec 11th release notes list
- the answer is that everything listed in the new release notes is new
since the original 7.2.2 release, so the release notes are no longer an
indication of all the bugs fixed since 7.2.1... But yes, I should be
grateful they do at least put out jumbo fixes rather than wait for me to
find a problem and have to deal with hotfixes.

To my knowledge, they don't release an official list of fixed bugs in
the release notes, until an official release of 7.2.3, where all the
bugs should be listed. If they don't, then I'll sign on the "dishonest"
remark. 
:)

IMHO, I think its good that they seem to focus more on product stability
now, rather than letting marketing and product development push new, and
probably broken features instead. I guess our complaints about what they
should put their product development effort paid off at last (ie fix
bugs, not develop new releases with new features until we have something
solid to start from). However, the 7.3 branch still has a long way to
go.
