[PVE-User] The future of PVE

Hello,

I'm building a server for an organization who, for all intents and  
purposes, is a non-profit hosting provider.  We've already decided to  
use OpenVZ, but until last night hadn't played around with PVE.  I  
really like it so far, I really think it'll fit our needs well.  I  
read on the forum that 0.9 can - and probably is - being used in  
production environments.  So I have a few questions before I decide on  
using it in production:

1. What will the upgrade process to 1.0 be like?  Will I be able to  
just download a .deb, install and reboot?  Or is this the kind of  
thing where we'll have to migrate the machines over to another machine  
and re-install with a new iso?
2. Will it always be open source?  I noticed a "valid keys" thing in  
one of the perl modules that makes me think it'll only stay open  
source through the beta.
3. ZDNet says "ProxMox is still very much beta code", but in my little  
bit of testing I couldn't really see a reason for this.  Is the OpenVZ  
part of PVE more stable than the KVM side?

Thanks,
-Jeremiah
