Good question. The proof will be in how rapidly they track their upstream going forward. If it was a mostly one-time transitional task, then future releases should come more quickly. They may also have taken extra time to polish because the quality of the 1.0 release will have a huge impact on how many people decide to dive in and support future development. If there are major problems, they could sour a bunch of fence-sitters. But if it works great, they may gain momentum.
