I think it has very much to do with the liabilities of the alpha release and the potential for it to do very nasty things. We did receive a very stern RobV-lecture on the matter. But I think I'd be allowed to recap this knowledge that has more or less already been leaked, so that you won't die of curiosity.
3 or 4 goooberheads with a bit of wine in them seem to have already linked
the most practical feature of the release (IMHO), at least to those who use random frequently.
Rob also mentioned before the meet that
the most significant accomplishment was the architectural changes to get the car player on the main release trunk so that features developed for other players will work on the car player as well.
