Almost Just a tongue-in-cheek suggestion...

why not go against the flow and accept that there will never be a 
fault-free 'perfect' version of FG and deliberately never release a 
V1.00 version:)

Instead, we could just start adding another version sub-subfix:)

In effect, and by other s/w producers standards we would already be 
somewhere between versions 5 and 20, so 0.9.12.00 would be cool.

Infact, I think it would be both amusing and publicity-worth to make a 
point of it because in reality it's true:)

I think it would be a statement that most development people would 
recognise and appreciate and atm they are the most significant users of 
FG:)
