Taniyama-Weil proved -- details?

The proof of the Taniyama-Shimura-Weil Conjecture is the work of Breuil, Conrad, Diamond, and Taylor, building on Wiles' proof of the semistable case. Last I heard, Diamond was still calling it a "tentative theorem" (pending a careful check of the details), but Conrad says he's 99% certain that the method has no errors.
