The best option is the kernel provided by your distro, assuming it has
one (most do these days). Unless you have very specific requirements
there's not really much reason to build you own.

Any recent mainline kernel (from 3.0 onwards) should work as a domain 0.
If you don't want to use your distro kernel then it's up to you, but it
would be wise to either pick an actively maintained (by kernel.org)
stable branch or to latest mainline release.

I suppose that wiki page stops at 3.1.0 because after then it's all
mainline...
