Agreed that we probably should go ahead and release 1.0.1 in the next
couple of months or weeks.

I haven't really worked on CSL development lately, so we probably should
make sure that everything is ready for a release, and that there aren't any
straightforward tickets left we can implement (like a
page-range-delimiter). I wrote up a document with (most of) the changes
made to the specification thus far*, in case anybody wants to review the
proposed changes.

So there are no still-supported releases of CSL-compatible applications out
there that are likely to trip over CSL 1.0.1 styles? (e.g. Zotero 2.1.10)
If there are, it might make sense to create a CSL 1.0 branch in the repo,
and ask Dan Stillman to make a separate front-end for CSL 1.0 styles, as
there already is for CSL 0.8.1 styles (http://www.zotero.org/styles-old).
It should also be relatively straightforward to create an XSLT stylesheet
to automatically downgrade CSL 1.0.1 styles to 1.0, if that's something we
need.
