Well, it depends. If you seriously want to take advantage of hooks and all
that, I recommend installing the CVS version. It's only time consuming
setting it up the first time! Updating it is fairly easy and requires less
than downloading a whole new version from typo3.org.

Again, if you need a *new* hook which is not included in 3.6.2, you will
have to work with 3.7.0dev anyways (or at least that's what I recommend).
It's not as difficult as it seems, just go ahead!

In case I forgot to point that out: The master description about hooks is in
"TYPO3 Core APIs" which provides a general explanation.

Great!
