But is that what it does?  I don't think so.  As I understand it, it takes
the CVS HEAD from each project and builds - the purpose being to be an early
warning system to detect when API's change through alteration of interfaces
or classes.

CVS HEAD is generally not considered the current release of a given project,
but the ongoing development efforts of the project.
