I think a new release is due fairly soon but the beta period has become 
extended because of the scale of the non-reversible changes that 
inevitably require extensive testing to tease out some subtle bugs. In 
general, the betas have proved remarkably stable, and in the odd case 
that a new one breaks things severely, Benny normally pushes an update 
out quickly, or you can just install the last known stable version. This 
certainly isn't ideal, but it's much better than most software.
