I want my addons!

As predicted, most of the World of Warcraft Addons are not working with the WoW 2.0 patch. My favorites, Auctioneer and Enchantrix will not be ready for a couple of weeks according to their site:

Due to the fact that many of our developers are extraordinarily busy with real-life concerns at the moment (such as exams etc), we are postponing the release of all 2.0 addons for 2 weeks after 2.0 is released on the live servers. (this will make it around the 19th of December)

What is this "real-life" they talk of?

Seriously though, it may be a wise move for them to let WoW settle down post-patch. I've no doubt there will be numerous emergency patches and rolling reboots.
