i don't even see the point of a 1.0 release at this point in time. This project 
has been a work in 
progress since 15 years. Why the heck has it been decided to do a 'gold' 
release *now* anyways? This 
actually resembles microsoft's own release policy: set a target date and 
deliver at that time, 
whatever reasons might speak against that. Why rush 1.0 out of the door? Me 
personally does not see 
any advantages to name it 1.0 (instead of f.e. 0.9.71), except that development 
has 'stabilized' 
(i.e. slowed down) - which obviously has not resulted in a more stable product. 
Anyone in the knows, 
please enlighten me on the motivations behind a release date in June 2008 for 
v1.0, i simply don't 
get it.
