A beta2 will be coming soon. I want to push out packages more often so
people can get up-to-date bits without having to use svn.

        - Or, is the recommendation to get the latest 2.1 nightly via SVN?


SVN is preferred because it is always up-to-date, but the beta packages are
fine if you don't want to hassle with SVN.
