Justification for the quantum equilibrium hypothesis

Hi,

I have been reading a few papers on Bohmian mechanics( or the de
Broglie-Bohm pilot wave
theory). Overall the theory looks very promising and inspiring.

However I have not come to terms with the "quantum equilibrium
hyphothesis".

I read Durr et al's paper "Quantum equilibrium and the Origin of
Absolute Uncertainty" but
I am not really convinced about the "quantum equilibrium hypothesis".

What is the status of this hypothesis and its justification? Any
pointers to recent papers/ideas
will be appreciated.

regards
kanwar
