Well unSpawn is the project admin, so he will decide the actual date of
release.

Whether to use the CVS version or not is a bit difficult for me to
answer. On the one hand it may be best to be safe and wait until the
official release. At least any bugs picked up in testing should have
been fixed by then. On the other hand I'm quite happy with the CVS
version, and plan to install it on my systems next week. These are live
and test systems, of differing O/Ses, and I'll also be doing RKH testing
on them. If there are bugs then this is the way to find them - by using
RKH.

Perhaps you can run the CVS version on just one server, and decide for
yourself? The README file has instructions for a standalone
installation, which allows you to install RKH into just one directory if
you want to. This can make testing easier since it doesn't interfere
with anything else on your system. When you are done then just delete
the whole directory :-) It also allows you to see what is new and what
has changed.

So, I'm afraid the decision has to be yours, and if you do use it and
there are bugs, well hopefully they won't be too bad :-) Don't forget,
of course, to report them!
