Hi,

It's fairly old, but it's still the current "production quality" release.

You can - testing is always welcome!  Bear in mind that the 2.9.x series is
a "work in progress", so it may or may not work.  Please let us know of any
problems (on the ijbswa-devel mailing list) so we can fix them.  When we get
a version that's been tested and we're happy with, we'll call it 3.0 and
make a big announcement.

There's a version in the "files" section, or if you like to live on the
bleeding edge you could try checking out the version from CVS.  There isn't
an RPM package available there at the moment, so you'll have to build from
source (i.e. unzip, run "./configure --disable-pthread", then run "make").
The most up-to-date documentation is the comments in the configuration files
(which are now called "config", "actionsfile", and "filterfile").

Because the pilot's about to demonstrate how fast he can dive the plane, and
I want to be out of there first :-)  Besides, throwing yourself at the
ground from 2 miles up gives a slight adrenalin rush <grin>
