The .gz is the latest and greatest which is stable and has been tested
in a complete sense.
The CVS version is of course newer; I estimate that it is *not* more
stable.

I think the HTML-ized tutorial is up-to-date with the last formal
release; I put several hours 
of work into making sure that is true.  It may be that the timestamp on
it is wrong.

DCM is a contributed module; I'm happy to answer questions about it but
have not 
written any documentation for it.  The tests are pretty good examples,
however.
