Sorry about that, didn’t realize it was this long since a regular 
build.

I pushed the latest nightly build as a regular release, this has dozens 
of fixes and no new experimental stuff, so it should be fairly solid.

On average I think the nightly builds are better than regular releases, 
because they get fixes faster ;) but there is the small chance that 
something bad will sneak into them, most of such incidents have been 
when I unknowingly use something that is unavailable (or broken) on 
10.7. I’ve been contemplating some sort of auto-downgrade daemon 
incase of a crashing update; for non-crashing updates, one can switch 
back to “Regular Releases” and do a “Check Now” to downgrade to 
latest non-nightly release.
