It's awfully quiet >in the R lens corner when it comes to new designs... Timing, it was the M's turn after a bunch of new lenses for the R. There have been some new R lenses of late. Some zooms, including the 70-180 2.8 and 105-280 4.2 and the 35-70 2.8, and the 180 Apo Elmarit. Hey, what do you mean quiet in the R lens corner. They've been doing pretty good!
