So, in short, do not update your Stable Apache installs to this development version!

Yer trolllin', but I'll bite. Apache does not use the even/odd version number scheme for 1.3. Any 1.3 release you may encounter is as 'production' as it is ever going to be, and it is this version that 63% of all web sites run on.

The 2.x development effort recently forked a 2.0 stable branch, with development happening on HEAD and fixes backported to the branch after review. The HEAD effort is usually referred to as 2.1, but no official releases have been made of this tree yet. There are plans to eventually promote the 2.1 effort to 2.2 and make releases of it. This would more closely follow the linux kernel version numbering scheme.
