I certainly didn't notice the switch,  But then I've just stayed on 
testing for several years, noticed the Gnome and KDE lurches, and 
had already switched to xfce a long time ago.

Also, a small, efficient, reliable system just doesn't *need* as many 
developers as a huge mess.  The resulting stability is much 
appreciated.
