Yes, although the third one is not official as the code has not been perused by Kovid.

It looks like Kovid makes changes to both to fix bugs discussed in the bug tracker. Correct?
Changes that affect all versions of calibre are first put into the main trunk repository. From time to time (usually no longer than a couple of days), Kovid merges these changes into the beta repository linked to in the first post. He also merges beta code into this repository after he approves/corrects it.

My development changes go into the 'beta beta' version. To avoid getting out of sync with Kovid, I frequently merge the changes from the official beta into my repository. In addition to getting the general calibre changes, I get Kovid's revisions to my files, so I will be working from approved code from that point on. I push my changes up to the beta-beta regularly, except when I forget.

How do you update the beta beta to get the bug fixes? Although I've now got a working HTC-HD2 driver, I'd like to keep testing the folder driver, but I also want the last bug fix from the tracker.
I think I answered this question. My beta-beta repository has all the changes that Kovid has committed for calibre 0.6 and calibre beta.
