If past experience is any indicator, the long gestation time of the
new release is the main factor in the drop-off. Fb 1.5.3 is very
stable and there's a lot of archive stuff to Google. After the
release, people will be allowed to post their v.2.0 problems to the
support list and it's probably going to hot up again. Let's see....
