I've been running 5.1-current on a few servers, and I've not bumped into any
serious problems.  I have -stable machines nearby 'just in case' though, and
my backups are fairly thorough :-)

I've had my personal webserver running on a 5.0R box for many months 
now, with no problems.

It's running an Apache/PHP/MySQL mix, but I will freely admit that it's 
hardly loaded.

Thinking about it, I probably should upgrade it to at least 5.1R ;)

You should probably wait until a release is tagged RELENG_5, indicating that 
it's considered stable.

(*shrug*) some people are already using it.  It is very stable for most
people now, but if you run into a bug, it is probably a show-stopper
type.

If you have multiple web servers, it would be nice to try 5.1-CURRENT and
report how you find it compairs to 4.x.
