you should use the cvs version only in the following cases: - if you plan to add something new to the distribution - if you need some new development that is not yet available in the stable version. If you just want to perform "normal" calculations, the latest release is all you need. The latest release and the cvs version will produce the same numbers, especially if you perform "normal" calculations, but on bad days the cvs version may not even compile. This is usually fixed in hours, but it may happen that a change introduces a bug that is not noticed before a few days or weeks or months. Right now there are few differences between the cvs version and the latest release, but this will not last.
