I would consider it a beta, and we have done some work to attempt to
stabilize it after many changes were made. I want to cut a 1.1.1 soon,
but there are still quite a few issues. If you would like to package
it then you can, but the intent (much delayed) is to release a 1.2.0,
but master has seen much-reduced activity.

I made entirely certain that Avogadro 2 can be installed in the same
prefix as Avogadro, so perhaps 1.1.0 with all the extra features and 2
with the reduced feature set as we build things up and port them would
be acceptable?
