Yes. Think of it as a release candidate for 1.0.8

The git head is pretty much the most stable. Development tends to move too
fast to make more regular 'stable' releases. You should of course test
releases work as expected before putting them into production.

If you find a Git version that you're comfortable with, then you can roll
out that version across your whole network even if there's a newer Git head
by running:
> git clone git://git.freeswitch.org/freeswitch.git
> cd freeswitch.git
> git checkout GIT_HASH

I believe the developers have been discussing making a 1.0 stable branch
soon with only bugfix and stability improvements and moving new development
onto a new 1.2 branch. If that happens then perhaps you'll be more
comfortable with that branch. Not sure when that's planned for though.
