Speaking only for myself, I don't need or even probably want the bleeding 
edge version.  I do, however, need various features which have been
fixed/implemented since the version Sun is shipping. The main one missing 
so far is the ability to delete objects from pools without having to
delete the whole pool and all its referencing rules first (this bug has
been fixed in a later version than what Sun offers).  This is causing us
to jump through hoops in writing our scripts to manage the firewall, but
things would be much more simple if Sun's version worked as advertised
in this respect. This problem is significant enough for us to make us
consider running a later version, even though we would much prefer to
just run the one our OS ships with.


Thanks
Toby
