For BDR users here, I'd just like to let you know that the RPM repository will shortly contain BDR 0.9.0 packages as well as the existing 0.8.0 RPMs.
This means that if you "yum upgrade", or do a "yum install" without specifying a version, you'll get the pending release.
If you want to ensure you get 0.8.0 for existing setups, please use yum version pinning via yum-plugin-versionlock , and for installs, specify the version as part of the package name. This will be recommended in the documentation for future releases, so that users have control over how and when they upgrade. See http://yum.baseurl.org/wiki/Faq for more on version pinning.
The release announcement for BDR 0.9.0 will have a lot more detail.
