[AusNOG] Issues with Cisco IOS 12.4(25) ?

On the topic of perhaps-a-bit-too-fresh IOS images...

Is it just me or does there not seem to be a single "stable/ 
production" IOS release available for download from Cisco?

Everything I see is tagged "ED" (Early Deployment).

I seem to remember the days when there would be at least a few  
"GD" (General Deployment) images, which I understood to be "ripe" and  
"go nuts and put it on everything".
