Good to know.

I'm dully reading the warning on each SVN checkout. :)

But I've been using 2.0 SVN (at least beginning with alphas, but
possibly even before that) in production mode, if what I do can be
called so, without much more than a hitch here and there. My personal
experience is that trunk is rock stable (anyone reading this, check
first the entire list of bugs tagged 'milestone 2.0.0'!!), but for the
compilation process where I regularly get crashes. (I think the latter
are somehow related to the Sweave module, but I should run a couple of
debugs when I get some time for myself.) If you regularly save before
hitting the preview button---which I do!---you're ready to go.

This is meant as praise to all the devels for their work on 2.0 ;)

Unfortunately my students would probably not much appreciate such
finesse, so I'm not yet sure how to handle this.

Thanks for the info. I should take a look at the manual one of these
days. Best regards
