I hope that the announcement above means also that we can start discussing NIS 2011. 
This is an architectural question, to head off potential questions in the future.
I noticed during the beta that the Activity Map was not updated for at least 4-5 days, while Smart definitions are ON (but possibly never, because I turned them off after such an interval).
My question is: when Smart Definitions are set to ON, the activity map data updates
a) less frequently
b) never?
