I agree calling these "milestone" releases puts people of using it.
How about though we call this next release something else (beta?) and
do the one after that as 2.0? That would give a little more time to
polish things so when people do try it they get a good experience.
There is still quite a lot that could do with tidying - the samples,
website, etc, - and I'm not sure we'd get much of that done in just
the next three weeks along with all the other work that is currently
being done.
