Part of the reason that Cassandra may be the focus is that Kevin Rose places much of the stability problems on Cassandra's shoulders. Two or three minutes into the most recent diggnation he talks about Cassandra and describes Cassandra as "very beta-stage software" and says how days before the launch at least some of their focus was on fixing "Cassandra problems" rather than issues with Digg v4.

If true, it's a lame excuse: blame should be placed on the people that decided to use the beta software to power their very-important-to-their-paycheck website
