[freeside] Upgrading to CVS?

[ivan at 420.am]

We're not really ready to offer free user-level support on the
development snapshots of the 1.5 ("unstable") branch, only the "stable"
and "testing" releases.  You can get involved in 1.5 development and
send patches, wait for a testing or stable release, or look into
commercial support options.  Good luck.
