I know from other OpenSource work I've done that version
numbering/formatting can become a heated debate but I too would
suggest you went for a version less than 1.0.

I don't think "noone wants to run 1.0" is a valid argument. The only
people I know that would fall in to are people that need 99.99% up
time or are OS adverse. Even if it was v4.0 it is just marketing and I
would still class it as a "young" OS solution as I can't find versions
3,2 and 1. I wouldn't put it into serious production use without
having done some testing which would then be reflected in the maturity
of the project as any problems I found would be reported.

Just my thoughts, what I really mean to say is don't spend to much
effort on picking the version number for your first release. Just
release and release often. Now I've heard that somewhere before. ;)

Cheers
