Jon,
It's been my experience so far that the current cvs has changed so  
much and fixed so many things compared to the latest stable, that you  
should go with cvs. It has also been my experience that due to the  
high level of activity on this project, any major problems with cvs  
are usually looked at and fixed very quickly.
I've gone the route of cvs, and alerted my users that it's in  
development. I have IMP set up so they can have a choice for now.


Regards,
Stephen
