Thanks for the question!
We released Dart as a Technology Preview last year, which means we released very early in the project's life cycle. We've been collecting feedback and updating/refactoring the language, libraries, and tools. We've recently started releasing Milestone builds, which are essentially beta builds of the SDK and tools. The language does not anticipate backward breaking changes (but we still anticipate adding features like mixins). The libraries are currently undergoing changes, driven by feedback from the community and internal users.
The question if you should use Dart now depends on when you need to ship your projects. Too much will be changing to bet on it to ship your project in Q1 2013. However, my impression is that if you're shipping in Q2 or after, Dart should be a good bet.
