Cheers for the update Bryce, I'm sure, even if the tone is heated at times everyone appreciates that someone, somewhere, is at least working on it !
I worry, however, about two things
a) the information about how to fix any issues wasn't included in the release notes. To me, it felt like Ubuntu was ignoring the problem, or worse trying to hide it.
b) any changes are so major (new kernel rev., for instance) that they won't ever be back ported into 9.04 from 9.10

For the record, I would prefer newer hardware plain didn't work till post-9.04 than saddle 'a sizable number' of existing users with a horribly bad (but working as you same) system... at least you can just say 'the latest Intel FooBar cards are not supported yet (and weren't in any previous version either)' and it's all very clear what is going on.
