.. have read the report!
.
.. a couple of quotes from your link
Take nothing for granted; do not jump to conclusions; follow every possible clue to the extent of usefulness . . . . Apply the principle that there is no limit to the amount of effort justified to prevent the recurrence of one aircraft accident or the loss of one life.
.
— Accident Investigation Manual of the U.S. Air Force.
.. thus my questions above!
I am a history major. I believe that the past is prologue. The archives bear that out. Most major aircraft accidents are not acts of God. In our recommendations we try to take what we have learned and correct situations so it shouldn't happen again.

.. so what is happening to prevent a reoccurrence .... training pilots not to use rudder to correct perceived yaw/roll in wake conditions??
.
.. aircraft control systems/sensitivity and structure are all A OK then I assume?!
.
.. anyhow, over to the experts ...
.
... I hope 2007 is a safe and happy year for us all!

Cheers
