Hi Tim, The development versions are very stable. I hammer them all day with massively complex scores, and no problems arise. The term 'unstable' is a self deprecating conventional trope of modesty used in the open source world.
Take the risk - it's worth it. And there are so many good new features I could not live without. What can you lose? If on the off chance it crashes, go back to 2.18.
