If you just need the entity engine and have code that you'd like to
contribute back to OFBiz, then the current SVN snapshot is better.
opentaps-0.9.x series still uses the older JOTM/Carol/Minerva
transactions servers, which are highly stable. The current SVN
version uses the geronimo servers. It seems to be stable as well.
The upgrade itself is not easy from 2.1 to the current SVN because
the directory structure has been thoroughly re-factored.
Fortunately, you're just upgrading one component, so it's not as
bad. There's a page on the ofbizwiki for upgrading from 2.1.1 to 3.0
that Brett Palmer wrote. Do that first. Then follow the
instructions here to take you to the current SVN.

If you need a snapshot of ofbiz-3.0 I have one and can put it online
for you.
Good luck, and thanks for giving us JIRA!
