Traffic on this list is by far and largely by those *having* problems, not those whose systems are fine. I use 2.0.x (currently .24) in production servers for two ISP sites. They are both heavily used and rock solid. Now this leads me to believe either I'm a super genius, or the code shouldn't be criticised so heavily. Since I couldn't figure out e=mc^2 as I was writing this, I am leaning towards the second..
I haven't used 1.2.x code for about 7 months now. I keep my systems up to date, and follow the guidelines regarding new kernels.
Before telling everyone to jump back into the dark ages (and yes, 1.2.13 is *not* stable, neither is 1.3.20) consider properly updating your system and pay heed to the recommendations posted in various manners.
