 Best I can tell 2 things (looking at koji) - someone decided to wait
for a fix for ABRT for some reason - looks like that went in yesterday.
Its possible that was the major holdup but its unclear.

 Also today a bunch of nouveau changes on top of that - that build is
2.6.32.8-55 - perhaps it will go to testing and from there be nice to
get to stable - time will tell.

 This kernel is the first since 2.6.30 to not crap out on intel iwlagn
when attached to N class access-points (the warn_slowpath bug) and many
more wonderful benefits.

  I too hope it will meander its way gently into updates!!

problem yet]
