unlike most 'regular' development projects out there. pygame doesn't 
really have "stable" and "development" versions. it is all one happy 
stream of development, and generally newer is always stabler than older, 
even out of cvs.

not to say there haven't been a couple slips in the cvs code, but they 
are generally rare. i'd say you're quite safe for using the cvs version. 
from how things have gone so far, i believe cvs can mainly be used by 
game developers, and the official releases are more for the end-users.

but in any event, development has gotten pretty slow for pygame. only
2 code changes since the 1.5.5 release at christmas. you can keep pace 
of what's gone online in the pygame changelog,
http://pygame.org/whatsnew.shtml

sometime after python2.3 is released and we get another round of updates 
from SDL and the gang, i'll be pushing for a 1.6 release, which should 
be the end-all and be-all of pygame for quite awhile?
