Keep in mind that version numbers are often fairly arbitrary (esp. on open source projects). For example, the Courier mail server, which I've had in production for the past several years, is currently at version 0.63.0. I think it is much more important to look at the age of the product, the amount of development activity, and the size of the user community.
Even so.... And, as I mentioned, it was a nightmare trying to install, configure, and get working. *bleah*
And yes, I found that there was a fix to one major problem that they did *not* know (in the Oracle interface, you have to bring the shared and global memory up almost to the limit. Mentioned that on the Spacewalk list, too: dunno if it went into their docs.)
