Why aren't the mailinglists on Sourceforge used instead? Don't they usually
work well?

Is there much difference between the unstable branch in the CVS and the 0.5
release?  Are there new features and/or changes to the interface or mainly
bugfixes?  If there are new features, are these documented?   And another
interesting question, is the unstable branch on the CVS more stable than the
latest stable release? ;)
