Personally I put more trust in CB 1.7 RC status than I do in Joomla 1.7 stable status.

In other words - RC means good enough for production site.

What a surprise! Funny how much impact simple numbers can have.

@nant
like your comment on J!1.7 I really wonder if they change the backend GUI to a juicy orange Why did they use the blue 1.6 label, when there is a new color on every .dot release... ?

i'm currently working on an update of a website which is more or less available to the users in a beta version. and just added the new cb 1.7 so i can get bugs reported from the users while they are testing the beta version. in case something relating to the new cb pops up i'll let you know.
