Sounds good to me.

The general rule:
Only the code required to maintain the jail break and package installation (for the booklet version of KUAL, the document version does not need protection) is bridged across Amazon updates.

An Amazon update does not effect the contents of visible USB storage.
Translation: KUAL extensions and documents that live ONLY in visible USB storage are safe.

Any of our after-market add-ins which we package in files with the name pattern: update_*.bin MUST be re-installed (using MrPI).
MrPI allows 'batch' installations, put all the update_*.bin packages you want installed into /mrpackages at the same time.
Then trigger MrPI.
Your done.

Note: Sometimes you have to reboot the Kindle to get some of the font package parts to work.

And if I missed something in the above (or Amazon changes something on us) -
The easy to remember rule is:
If it is broke after any Amazon firmware update -
do not panic, just re-install whatever is broke.
