Jump in the cold water and get Oort. Serious it's in many respects
better than 5.8.8 and 5.9 (which are the same) and only heaven knows
when we'll see a release.

Do a checkout from CVS, read gnus.ding for two weeks after that and see
if there are any major bug reports, then make a backup of the checkout,
and do CVS update, read through the changelogs of the last two weeks,
see if something looks like an important bugfix, if not install and use
it. Then you should be quite save from major trouble, at least this
works for me since months now.
