David, what I have found with Smashwords is that they don't necessarily deliver. I have uploaded backlist over a month ago, passed the qaulity controls with flying colors and those books are not listed on the sites they "distribute to", such as the Sony eBook store which doesn't allow just anyone to publish, but if you go through Smashwords or Author Solutions, you can, but I'm finding that not to be true.

However, with a company that produces POD's that only takes actual publishers, my eBook backlist and new books were listed within a week on some of the "partners."

I think there will be a lot of things that everyone will rethink and change as we fumble through this interesting time.
