Although it's important to note that 2.x is still pre-beta, and not safe for running in a production environment.
Not so. Though the 1.3 version is still supported, "Apache 2.0.40 is the best available version" and has been General Availability (GA) for quite some time. The GA designation means that the release is past alpha, is past beta and is recommended for production usage.

The only caveat that applies is that the modules for 1.3 are incompatible with 2.0 and not all of them have been upgraded to the new Apache API. Even then, there only remains some obscure, infrequently required modules to be rewritten. Most all of the common ones are available and working.
