iPhoto 7.0.2 update available

Seems like it was just yesterday we were updating to iPhoto 7.0.1... OK, it was August 9, but it feels like yesterday. It does appear that Apple's consumer photo app is the subject of much tweaking, as the 7.0.2 update is now downloadable. What's new:
This update to iPhoto addresses issues associated with publishing to .Mac Web Gallery, rebuilding thumbnails, and editing books. It also addresses a number of other minor issues.
The update is 10 MB and requires no rebooting.
Thanks Dionysios

Hopefully removing the recurring beach ball effect was a "minor issue".

While this hasn't eradicated the constant mds process spike issue every time iPhoto starts, it has dropped the CPU usage from 100% to around 25%.

Anyone know if this fixes the issue where some people are unable to edit Event names?

#4: I couldn't edit event names and now I can, so yes, I guess. :)

Some of these bugs are somewhat glaring.
I want to know this: iLife '08 has taken so long to appear (hence being called '08 rather than '07 even though the latter would have prevented the iPhoto 7.0 version number causing confusion) ... so just WHAT were the QA team doing with this extra time?
Far be it for me to call in question Apple's development proficiency, but there are single-man shareware apps which have more polish and fewer bugs than than this.
(Please forgive the frustration - over the past week I've been trying to solve a relative's iPhoto woes, from another country.)

I'd just like to know when iTunes will be able to copy pictures from the library to an iPod by event rather than album. Since moving to the new iPhoto, I've dumped all of my old albums, since events cover them perfectly!

Did iPhoto update break export plugins? Google and Facebook. I no longer see it as an export option.

How about an update for Garageband so that it will actually work! Mine keeps crashing (along with many others'), and I SOOOOOO want to use MagicGarageband!
