Storage method advice

I'm setting up a small, private news server (FreeBSD) and was wondering
what the current thinking is on the storage and overview methods is. I
was thinking of going with 'timecaf' for storage and 'ovdb' for the
overview method, but was a little concerned with the warnings about
being more untested than the other methods, as mentioned in INSTALL.
Is this still true?

Like I said, I'm just running a private news server, with no feeds at
all.  Supporting maybe a few dozen reader/posters, using a fairly
fast hard drive.

Thanks for any advice. I'm using the inn-stable on FreeBSD, which
downloads inn-STABLE-20040707.tar.gz.
