That's my perspective too, but I come to the opposite conclusion with,
I think, the same motivation.  Would you base develoment on an
unreleased version of Java?  Or Xalan?  Only if you absolutely
positively had to.

You guys have a lot more experience working the Lenya/Cocoon
integration issues than me, but my own experiences with developing
products based on unrelased software have been pretty close to
integration hell.
