all fixes done in R14.0.x
1) If you want a real stable version, use R14.0.0.
2) If you want a stable version (but that sometimes may have minor temporary problems) use
R14.0.x branch, so you can
help testing the next maintenance release.
3) If you want a somehow less stable version (that sometimes may also have major temporary
problems) use R14.1.0
branch, so you can help testing the next minor release.

Is this like the difference between Stable and
Unstable?
I'm really struggling to see how the different versions are intended to be understood
by users.
Yes, this is probably the most accurate expression.
In the apt source 'preliminary-stable-builds' packages are based on
'r14.0.x' GIT branch == basis for maintenance
releases R14.0.1, R14.0.2, etc. In short, focused on the stable releases.
In the apt source 'nightly-builds' packages are based on the 'master' GIT
branch == basis for a future release
R14.1.0. In short, focused on the development of new features - may be unstable.
