Thanks :)

That may well be, but I feel I should warn you that it has not reached
anything near "production quality" yet.

Actually, the version in CVS is a pre-alpha of 0.2, and it isn't
finished yet (not properly tested/bugfixed, and not really fully
implemented either).

That is simply because we haven't released the one in CVS yet. When we
do, the version number in the package will change.

Note that it is not clear exactly when this will happen. We have tried
to finish the 0.2a0 before christmas, but it seems highly unlikely
that any great progress will be made for quite some time now, since
most developers (including myself) are very busy with other projects.
(I am finishing my Ph.D myself :)

I am confident that we eventually will release version 0.2, though,
even if it takes some time.

That is strange. What error message do you receive?

Well, that ought to work...
