There’s “tests-passed” (the 3.2.0 release) and the “stable” branches. While both are “stable”, the stable branch is:

> [@3.1.5: Security and bug fix release](https://meta.discourse.org/t/3-1-5-security-and-bug-fix-release/293094/1):
>
> more focused on _lack of change_ than _lack of bugs_

The note about both being “stable”:

> [@3.1.5: Security and bug fix release](https://meta.discourse.org/t/3-1-5-security-and-bug-fix-release/293094/1):
>
> all releases, including those on tests-passed and beta are production ready.
