No, that would be silly. :-)

Yes, we will switch to 2.3.0.  I'm going to put together testing kits
for everyone when we get a little further along.  Right now, I'm
trying to kill the GNATS bugs -- those will help us to find some of
the bugs before we get to full application testing.

I haven't tried recently -- but the kits will have scripts to DTRT.

Thanks,
