I suppose it's true....:) I've been lucky enough to yet encounter problems with it. Just did 3.1-Stable this weekend and it went without a hitch... (Woo Hoo!) I've got two words.... Kick Ass.... The general feel of 3.1 over 2.2.7 so far is wonderful... things seem to move faster and more efficently. Possibly I know a lot more then I did 6 months ago... but still...:) And I'm not sure how I got it that way... but Afterstep looks bloody awesome now....
