Well, most of the elementary stuff builds and installs on my system but
I don't regard it being release quality:
- The lua-plugin doesn't build (it did at some point in time, but later
code changes broke this and I failed to fix it within a 2 hour timeframe.
- It should work on current Linux systems
- At least GTK2, GLIB2 and Kerberos detection need more work.
- Install works, but packaging (deb, rpm, ...) and source packaging don't.
- The docbook stuff is horrible and needs to be (at least partially) redone.
- Non-Linux Unix'ish OSses might or might not work - tests and reports
always welcome.
- Windows is out of the scope of what *I* can support right now, as I lack
Windows, a build-environment and the knowledge for it.
That said, compiling and installing *should* work and if it doesn't I'm
interested in bugreports!

We are stuck with technology when what we really want is just stuff that
works. Some say that should read Microsoft instead of technology.
