Karmic is the latest version of Ubuntu released at the moment. Usually you would go for that. If you wanted a distribution that's going to be stable and supported for longer, you would go for a Long Term Support (LTS) release. The last LTS release was Hardy, but it's quite old now; the next LTS, Lucid, is coming out to replace it this month. | |||

If it's a production system, stick with the LTS releases. The current is 8.04, but 10.04 will be out at the end of April. | |||
