And changed his mind when he noticed what the code freeze had led
towards.  There are copious indications on the mailing lists referring
to his retraction of any statements about inherent instability in
dot-zero releases.  He also said that we'd never have a release like 3.0

4.0 is considered the better choice.  I wouldn't advise anyone to use
3.4 over it, certainly.
