For now, 1.3.3.9 is the only one to recommend. That having been said, 
historically, as time goes on we find that the "unstable" versions get 
most of the bugs ironed out and become usable (even though they may not 
get that "stable" moniker). You have to keep track as you experiment 
with 1.3.4, since its file format cannot be imported into 1.3.3.x and 
earlier.
There are enough enhancements in 1.3.4 that no doubt people will be 
itching to use it -- just give yourself a safety net.
