When NOT use?
As we said earlier, Joomla! 3.0 is a standard-term-version, meaning that it is only for short support by Joomla! Group.
After 3.0, there will be 3.5 - a long-term-version for longer support, same as 2.5. You will be able to...
upgrade 2.5->3.5, instead of through 3.0
... that's cool? So you should NOT upgrade to 3.0 if you want to have a stable Website.
How about Joomla! 1.5 and Joomla! 2.5?
Joomla! Group Plans:
- Joomla! 1.5 now only has security patches, it will be NOT supported after 3.0 release.
- Joomla! 2.5 will be supported until 3.5 release
- Joomla! 3.0 will be released on 27 September
- 2014: End of Joomla! 2.5 and Release of Joomla! 3.5
- After Joomla! 3.5, version 3.0 is out of support
Being interested in Joomla! 3.0, what's news?
The most famous support from Joomla! 3.0 is Bootstrap and ability to go "responsive". But if you only need responsive, these are Joomla! 2.5 suitable to you:

Note again: ONLY if you want to build a new site from scratch, then use Joomla! 3.0.
