Hmm, I think that maybe what James Driscoll was originally getting at was to sort the listing of questions based on the time of the last reply, as opposed to today's sorting based on time of initial posting.
The "New Answers" page does exactly that, except it only lists to the presumed time of your last visit. That might not always be what the user wants.
I see no significant reason for change. Possibly it would have been nice to not limit the time scope of the "New Answers" page, sometimes I come back to the forum more than once a day and then might lose part of the listing at "New Answers".
