We update the extraction of V-us from hadronic tau decay data in light of recent BaBar and Belle results on the branching fractions of a number of important strange decay modes. A range of sum rule analyses is employed, particular attention being paid to those based on non-spectral weights, developed previously to bring the slow convergence of the relevant integrated D = 2 OPE series under improved control. Results from the various sum rules are in good agreement with one another, but similar to 3 sigma below expectations based on 3-family unitarity.
