I think they are careful and will restore the service as safe as possible.
But there are other exchanges waiting to take their position, so they need to do it wisely.
Just ask them for deadlines, to know if they are trustworthy.
I hope it will cool the atmosphere ;-)
I've been talking with mintpal, and mintpal also talked with cryptsy who did a security audit of my commits. Things are fine, they just want to triple-check everything so there are no issues.
Thanks to mintpal for making sure we're all secure and not just rushing to make some quick BTCs on trade volume.
