Hello,

I haev been running 2.0r for a while and recently installed a new machine 
with the 950412 snapshot.  I am thinking about installing 2.0.5-release 
on this machine but I am wondering which distribution is more stable.  I 
am running this in a production environment and telling everyone how 
stable it is so if there is anything I can do in terms of selecting the 
best release level to increase stability, I will do it in an instant.

I have read the documents that show the differences to 2.0.5 but what I 
am wondering is, In a nutshell, which release is more stable now that 
2.0.5 is out and in use around the planet.

Thanks in advance for anyone's comment.
