Hi :) It sounds like you are happier with much later releases in a branch. It makes sense to wait for the x.x.5. For a lot of people the x.x.4 is the best balance between new features and stability. If you normally use more than 1 machine then getting a x.x.0 on one and keeping the other at the last stable one you were happy with makes a lot of sense. It's good to test-drive early releases and post bug-reports against them but to have the stable one for normal use. Regards from Tom :)
