This is already prity stable and will be officaly afther a few week/months. Do be conservitive with upgrading until the 5.3 release is out. You can also install 5.2.1 plus patches instead if you like an actual release better. This prity stable althou officaly not a stable but i feel that you can safly use it. -- Alex Please copy the original recipients, otherwise I may not read your reply.
