R14.0.0: stable version. Does not change.

R14.0.x nightly builds: development branch of next maintenance release of R14.0. Will not contains major changes from
R14.0.0 unless critical problems are found. Mostly bug fixes for the stable version

R14.1.0 nightly builds: development branch of next minor release (R14.1.0). Major changes will go here, together with
all fixes done in R14.0.x

1) If you want a real stable version, use R14.0.0.
2) If you want a stable version (but that sometimes may have minor temporary problems) use R14.0.x branch, so you can
help testing the next maintenance release.
3) If you want a somehow less stable version (that sometimes may also have major temporary problems) use R14.1.0
branch, so you can help testing the next minor release.

Cheers
