With the pressure they have to refine the mobile feature set, don't be 
surprised if Linux-specific RQCC issue take a bit to show status change.

It's also worth noting that the RQCC is in practice only a feeder for 
the tracking system they use internally, so in most cases -- regardless 
of affected platform -- you may not see any change there until an issue 
is resolved.   For issues I've reported I often see them sit apparently 
untended, but then when a new release comes out batches of them get 
marked off as "Fixed" all at once.

Would you mind posting the RQCC #s here?  I track Linux issues since 
they affect an ever-greater portion of my work.
