My somewhat incomplete understanding of the status: mergs of SMP with 3.0 is waiting for the merge of lite-2 into current. once this is shaken out then SMP will be merged into current. current is merged into SMP every month or so, the last time being Decemmber 31. SMP itself is fairly stable, runs on most MP machines it has been tried on, and is considered ALPHA level. It is capable of running "make world" on current without problem.
