When I use the "Recent Posts" link, I get the choice of "Posts Added Today", "Posts since my last visit" and "Post from last week".
Firstly, the results seem to be sorted in time order descending, somewhat disconcerting at first view, wasn't the old list in forum order? Much prefer it that way. Then I can scan through skipping over the forum groups I'm not particularly interested in.
Secondly, it may be something to do with the new release but the resulting list was showing posts that had been made months ago. A lot of it seemed to be related to article and script submissions. Although looking at the forum group for a particular author showed no posts.
