Yes, there are quite some differences. In how far they affect you is a
different topic however, which I can't answer right now.
That said 3.0.0 is a stable released while with trunk (aka 3.1.1) it can
happen that things break from one moment to the other (it's seldom, but it
happens). So if you prefer stability over bleeding edge bugfixes I'd use
3.0.0 at least once its final is released.

I installed from SVN head a while ago and this version seems to be
3.1.1 SVN 32000.

Are there a lot of differences between the RC and 3.1.1?
Should I back off to the 3.0 RC?

The release candidate. The final 3.0 version should be pretty much 
identical.

I'm about to start a new project. Do you recommend to use the release
candidate version or the stable 2.6.4?
