The version of open-vm-tools that is released monthly is a "developer preview" kind of product, that is supposed to give a glimpse of the upcoming changes. We have a stable version of the same which corresponds to the version of VMwareTools released with or latest Workstation/Fusion products. VMwareTools software that is shipped with our platform software is the version that has been tested by QA and is supported by us.
