I was travelling down that road when somebody finally fixed the problem (after 2 days) and my intermitten target went away. It's bound to happen again though - the wifi nodes seems to be in a tizzy the past two weeks (brownouts I think). So is the cvs relatively stable? Mon is not mission critical stuff here, so I'd be more than happy to run that on a bunch of machines. Right now I am on 0.99.2 I was eyeing CVS the other day... debating it.
