I would advise that if you don't need javascript/audio/video and stuff like that, to create an ePUB2 instead of ePUB3.

Hmm...I'll have to think about that. I like EPUB3 for reasons that don't have anything to do with that stuff (at least not yet for me).
It's clearer and less confusing to me than EPUB2 which seems more of a glued together standard and less cohesive. I suppose you could rightly say it's a more mature EPUB.
The documentation for EPUB3 that I have seen is far superior to that which I have seen for EPUB2 (which again is all over the place...I like definite and don't like somewhat nebulous and open ended).
OReilly has chosen to create their books in EPUB3 though they do take steps to be backwards compatible.
The DOCTYPE is real easy to grasp LOL. DOCTYPE html. That's it. Though Sigil messes it up since it doesn't do EPUB3 yet (but then again I am writing scripts to spit out this and other EPUBs of mine in the future so I won't be using Sigil).
More flexibility in how the TOC is done.
More CSS goodness available.
That's about it for now I think.
