yes.

yes.

drbd 0.7.11 (soonish 12...),
or branches/drbd-0.7, which is the current "stable" branch.

as long as svn trunk reads 0.8, it is "experimental developement".
you can use it, crash your boxes, send us bug reports and thus help
developement. if you intend to _use_ drbd, don't use svn trunk.
at least not now.
