You can't really make generalizations about JUNOS as a whole, it depends 
on which platform you're talking about... That said, at this exact 
moment we're actually having surprisingly good results (i.e. so far 
nothing major/new has blown up, and the number of serious outstanding 
bugs is lower than average) with 10.1S6 on both MX (not tested with Trio 
though) and EX8200. 10.0 is the only extended support release until 
10.4, so you might want to give it some consideration, but in our 
testing it still had a lot of serious issues leading all the way up to 
10.0R4. Our general theory is that we're going to stick with 10.1 for 
EX8200 for a while (trying to squeeze as many major fixes as possible 
for all the outstanding huge bugs into 10.1R4), but we're gonna be 
forced into 10.2+ for MX to get full Trio support soon anyways, so there 
isn't much benefit to hanging around 10.0 even if it was stable.
