Would you use Eclipse's nightly builds? No? Then don't use 1.1 alpha, same thing. The Smalltalk "tradition" slightly differs here, as the more tolerant developers use the alpha build, but people doing production work use the latest stable release (in this case 1.0). I've done a number of production applications in Squeak and we always used the stable version for that. Or, in case we really needed something from the trunk version, we only updated occasionally when we were sure it had reached a somewhat stable plateau.
