The 2.0.a1 is NOT out yet and it is not a public release as there is still a lot of work to be done.

Not so bad when people jumped the gun on 1.5.0.2 (which is still not out) as there was very little changes for the 1.5.0.2 build compared to HUGE changes for 2.0a1 due to Places and other things still being worked on.

Just because the mozilla1.8 Branch nightly builds was changed from 1.5 to 2.0a1 does not at all mean that 2.0a1 is out.
