Question is, why is it so important that the version is 1.0?
If it was labelled version 1 today, it wasn't any more stable than it is as 0.9.26.
And not to forget, there is plenty of software out there that has versions greater 1, even 5 or 8..., and some people they those should still be beta...
Isn;t it more important which features in your view / for your need are missing, (if so) and when they might be available?
