0.9 is a moving target. It is going to be excellent when it is finished
however.

2.4.2 did not work well with 0.5.10b. Although this bug seemed to be
fixed when using 2.4.3 and 0.5.10b. But everyone should be using 2.4.4 or
later seeing as how 2.4.3 was extremely problematic. I am currently using
2.4.4 with 0.5.11. I'll update to 2.4.5 here shortly.
