Yup!
And they just let a big time spammer back in with doorway pages in tact.
Googleguy, I just sent you numerous spam reports pointing out the doorway pages.
I thought doorway pages were frowned upon by Google?

looks like there should be some movement over the weekend.

hmm search result on one keyword in www. just went up from 3950000 to 4150000 listings. result on -sj was 4470000 before and has stayed that way. backlinks one our site are now equal for and www. -sj inherited the www. backlinks.
seems www. is converging with -sj at them moment to a degree.

Hmm...the SERPs I just checked still reek worse than a 7 day old dead possum rotting in a Georgia ditch in the summertime. Where it counts, Google still stinks.

They almost doubled the amount of backlinks to yahoo on -sj, www2,www3 in the past hour, hopefully they have added all the links from the deep crawl in April.

Looking Good...
Old sites links are showing up and have increased. My new sites links are showing...
Old sites positions held at number #1. New site in Top Ten most cases #2 and #3 and sometimes #1 for main keywords.

While it is true this update is vile and repelling, I dunno if it is quite bad enough that you should consider suicide. You can always hope Google will get things right in the June update.
