Umm, okay, but if you look at this link from the main page it shows a
release version, which was released on 6 November 2007.  Not that long
ago.  Doesn't that mean I can check out a "release"?

I want to package a new version for Debian.  Can you tell me the correct
way to get the source? Will I have to use a version number like
cvs20080116 or something?

Thanks
