I am so confused about the release numbering and what is deemed
stable.

The only version numbered 3.1 that I see is 3.1.0-beta. Was there a
non-beta 3.1 version?  Is beta considered "stable"?  Are 'rcX'
versions stable?  This came up yesterday I think, but why bother with
'rc' tags if the point release number goes up every time a new RC
goes out - typically I think of RCs as a way of doing something
between a beta and a final release, so the version number never
changes...if the RC goes well, a non-RC tarball is produced using the
*exact same code*!

In my mind, the 3-x series has never been stable, because there's
always been an alpha, beta, or rc in the source name.
