I guess it depends on how many files you are willing to hand correct and how fussy your vendors are. Our distributor is using 3.0RC-2, and catching errors that 3.0b5 is missing (the validator built in to the Oxygen editor). Our files are produced by our typesetting vendors, and I don't have time to correct every one. I need to make sure our files aren't rejected by the distributor. So that means I have to hold my suppliers to the strictest standards.
