Hi,
if you are familiar with svn I would like you to grap the last version 
1.3.0 before the Depency Injection and Dispatcher Refactoring got in.
Until then it can really considered to be stable, only additions got in, 
which - to me - should have been done in 4.4 to. It's much, but sth. 
like the "iteration" at the f:for viewhelper you'll really appreciate.

Furthermore the "new stuff" is not testet so I think you should "stay 
away" - if there are bugs, you as a beginner would not consider them as 
such, but search for hours at your own code, what you did wrong.

As I never could build an "non-trivial" extbase Extension without 
patching etxbase / using non-api function / overwriting basic things in 
the controller or such, I'm a bit scared of the new extbase version 
which are refactored internally - I'm quite sure, I would have to adapt 
every Extension (and for such, I do not have the time)...

So if even the "experienced guys" try not use the new stuff directly, a 
beginner should neither.
But I'm pretty sure that this matures, as Bastian W. really puts lot 
efforts into extbase on things which are outside his own scope and 
therefore arising bugs will be fixed probably a bit faster ;)

Steffen

P.S: The referenced version works fine in TYPO3 4.3, too.
