OK, this could kick off a lot of discussion, but here goes…

I'd like to polish a release this week if possible.  Roy'd previously mentioned 
calling it 1.0, but I'd like to go with v0.9.3 because
 1) I'm not aware of anything drastically different vs 0.9.2, but correct me if 
I'm wrong;
 2) In any case I'd like to wire brush the code and remove all the APIs that 
have been deprecated for ages;
 3) I'd like to remove the default comm_world business for 1.0.

So v0.9.3 could be imminent with then 1.0 a API cleanup follow-on.

But what about C++11?  I could see 1.0 as a 'maintenance stream' where we back 
port important bug fixes but otherwise leave it alone.  New development could 
occur on a master requiring C++11, unless there is a consensus otherwise.  It's 
2014 already, and a good quorum of C++11 features are implemented in pretty 
much all relevant compilers.

Specifically for the MOOSE guys, what's the oldest compiler you are compelled 
to support?
