Mostly. The Write and Read issues are known. Write will be fixed in
the next OS build, webkit is a known issue. Jukebox might be fixed in
the next one too as there's some newer gstreamer packages.

We're in the middle of some mass churn since the weekend, its starting
to settle out now. Once its settled I plan to do another OS build.
That will likely be in the Thurs time frame.
