We currently use 1.3 Alpha-7 and it works pretty well for us, my preference as a user would be to clean up the current alpha for release as 1.3 or call it 2.0 if it is not binary compatible with the latest 1.2.14. In general, I dislike "big bang" releases and favor instead release early, release often, a la XP.
