I'm not OP, but I suspect it's a bit like watching a hyped sporting event. There's a build up, lots of discussion, some naysayers and the tech equivalent of trash talking. In the end you sort of expect something more exciting than what we got. It's sort of like watching the favorites secure a clinical win in the Superbowl. It's ok, but no one's going to be talking about it for years to come.

That said, as a Truecrypt user, this is good. I don't have the technical expertise to understand truecrypt myself, but a second set of eyes (and all the eyes watching that second set) make me more comfortable. Follow standard security recommendations and you're pretty safe.
