There were a couple of people reporting excessive battery drain, but not all people. I havent played with the new firmware since it came out (currently back on Dec F/W) but something such as closing the book vs leaving it open in CoolReader may have different effects on the battery.
I think Astak have done right, they pulled the firmware off their website in light of some issues and will re-release when fixed. Sure there could have been more testing before hand, but we were the ones asking for our firmware now.
I think these issues show a potential avenue for testing for Astak. Obviously some people here are quite willing to test firmware out (me included), so perhaps Astak could release a beta copy of each firmware and let us help test it out before final release??
