For portability / easy availability of dt across the Linux/Unix world 
I'd suggest to check from time to time what version is available in 
Debian stable. From experience, this can usually be met easily by any 
distribution. (Ubuntu is way too near the bleeding edge. Basing things 
on their vesions usually cause headaches.)

Debian testing is now at 3.14, but this is testing thus not yet 
released. One could thus expect that 3.14 will be quite a gold standard 
for a longer time to come. (Thinking of portability.)
