but i need a working OS, not a bata !
If you don't like using a beta (nothing wrong with that), you definitely should not be using -stable either. There are even less promises regarding the reliability and quality of -stable than there are of a beta. After all, during the prerelease and beta cycles, the tree is getting in shape for a release and there is a focus on fixing as many little nits as possible. In between releases, bigger MFCs might hit -stable from time to time and make it less reliable.
So, while you are getting confused by the branch name changing, you should also rethink whether you want -stable at all. It really seems like you should be aiming for RELENG_5_4 (and then RELENG_5_5 once 5.5 is out) instead.
