Yes, the "Mendocino" build is the most up-to-date, and includes the 
printer/USB support, VPN stuff (although most recent kernel patch is 
needed to make it actually work), multiple administrators, etc.  
Qubes sold with this payload are known now as the "Qube 3+"

Beware making your own OSRCD, as the patches need to be installed in a 
specific order, but the filenames cannot just be renamed for the Qube 
like they can on the RaQ 4, etc.  (Something about the installer 
comparing the actual filename to the one stored inside the PKG header 
info or something...)   I personally never came up with a good way to 
make custom Qube 3 OSRCDs...

If you come up with something that works, please post the procedure!
