Define "stable". The latest release is stable in that it works well and
passes all tests (thousands of them). It's not "stable" in the sense that
the 8.0 release is constantly changing and improving from minor release to
minor release, but that should be expected.

The core team works very hard to not include any breaking changes within a
major version code base, and their excellent tests help validate that.
Watch the change log. They label new things that aren't "stable" in terms
of API or even longevity as experimental and production deployments are
encouraged to avoid those features. Things that will be removed in a future
major version are labeled as deprecated.

Hmm... One thing: I think I recall that deprecations can occur within a
time frame (3 months IIRC) as opposed to being limited to at the next major
release. Don't quote me on that. If that were the case, using the last
release of the prior major release might be the most stable? If I made that
up, you should absolutely always be able to use the most recent release of
the current major -- just avoid experimental.

Core team: my apologies if I added any unacceptable confusion.
