We're nearing the ending of Alpha 5, the only thing missing is paying for server bandwidth from a competitor.
Alpha 6 will include loads of save breaking additions, so if you're still on the "old" branch, you should get ready for having your saves broken, and there won't be any way around it this time, so I would recommend moving to the main branch once alpha 6 hits. Anyone on the updated branches can switch to the old branch when Alpha 6 arrives to keep their saves, but again, remember to upgrade to the default or beta branch ASAP!
