I think that 1C's response to date has been appropriate.
Luthier has provided us with a roadmap as to their patching priorities, the 1C team has provided us with two patches (as well as the betas of those patches) and has provided us with updates on progress at a frequency of at least one a week thus far.
My view is that that is perfectly adequate and certainly well above the norm compared to most developers. What more do we want? Daily updates? Micro updates on every portion of the patches to come? There has to be a balance between managing communication with the community and getting on with the work that needs to be done.
While I understand the frustration this release has caused, I think that OM/1C's past track record and current reaction to this fiasco of a release should earn them a little patience and respect. Just let them get on with it. To expect a higher frequency of updates is not realistic. A weekly update (not a weekly patch) strikes an adequate balance, imo.
