Hi Julie, There will be another release with a traditional numeric version identifier eventually, but as it currently stands the development snapshots are about as "stable" as research software gets. There are a number of cosmetic bugs but no major bugs that I am aware of in terms of the calculation of genome alignments. If you want to incorporate to your pipeline, I would suggest referencing the datestamp as the software version -- the snapshots will remain available to the public so that reproducibility of results by others can be achieved by obtaining a matching datestamped build of the software.
