The computer science student in me says the release build should be
stable like a castle. In terms of "Pauls ABC" that would be mostly C
with some B but definately no A

Nighlty builds should have EVERTHING in them, with appropriate does not
work yet messages, so i can go bug hunting, and play with all the latest
and greatest new features on the bleeding edge.

On WJ Carpenters comment below, i wish Abiword could do a better job of
rendering doc's with preexisting Tables, so that i can use wordpad if im
really desperate for tables and then go back to editing in Abiword for
my spell checking and what-not.
