I agree. It needs to get committed so we can move ahead, and it's better

Our testing has not shown up any of those instabilities. The article
claims that 450 of the
tens of thousands who have downloaded 1.5 have had stability problems.
As the article states:

Anyone who's worried (or who sees any of these instabilities) can and
should use the previous
packages, which will remain on the mirror sites for a little while (or
in your /usr/ports/packages
if you build your own). Or, if you want even more stability, stay with
the stable branch.
