it's not worth waiting no, especially when you can download CI 2.0 right now. The branch will be out next year, so why wait?
Use CI 2.0 and upgrade to the community branch when it comes out, if/when you decide it is better than CI 2.0. The two will most likely be very similar, with the community branch containing a few extra bits here and there. Of course, we don't know yet but that's the usual case.
