I have tested the packages in http://eric.lavar.de/comp/linux/debian/experimental/ and have experienced no bugs or errors.

I do not have the skills to build the package myself (in chroot), especially as it can run via a .sh script.

Why is it beta? It's been beta for over a year now, I think that's just how the programmer likes to mark his programs.

Do I consider it appropriate for LTS? More so than 0.7.1 which has been out for 4 years.

This version gives the user ability to export in SVG, SWF, PNG, JPEG, ODT, HTML, interactive HTML (using JavaScript) and so on, all of which are unavailable in 0.7.1. It removes the dependency on the older sun-java5-bin package and is internationalized in over 20 languages

I've attached the ChangeLog.txt, found as ./history.txt, since 0.7.1 which is currently in the repositories.
