If it comes down to marketing and a reasonable version number scheme (i.e. one 
that correlates with the major feature development), why not skip 1.0 
altogether. v1.0 has that magical, shining appearance of bugfree, feature 
complete etc. something the current version definitely is not (given the 
other testing thread).

So my proposal is to go back over the changelog, count the biggest 
improvements and call it v4.0 or v5.3. Together with some explaining notes in 
the distro and on the website this should not raise the excitement (which IMO 
backfires at us ATM) that a silent 1.0 is going to produce.

OTOH the version number is the most uninteresting thing for me in FG. The 
versions important to me are usually called HEAD... :P
