In general, if you're looking to run a server or other stable system, look to 2.1.6-RELEASE or 2.2-RELEASE when available. If you're looking to test what's current in FreeBSD, run the 3.0-SNAPs. I am running the beta on my box and no problems except for trouble with the ncr SCSI controller probing, which I fixed with a kernel recompile. The web pages at http://www.freebsd.org contain an explanatory page that describes the FreeBSD release structure.
