2.2 would be the best choice but you really need to wait a bit. It seems
that a number of people are having problems with it and there are a couple
of design thing happening too.

2.0.7 is nice and stable, a bit limited and does not do W2K PDC things.
Some test of mine indicated that it was considerably faster than 2.1-prealpha.
