The point in getting to 1.0 is to put all the stuff that 1.0 needs to have in
place _before_ 1.0 is released. That includes:

(1) Having staff (even volunteers) trained to respect the users. Users who take
the time and effort to submit meaningful bug reports are among your best
assets. Those who have shown up prior to 1.0, if you can build a good
relationship with them, especially so.

(2) Having the mechanisms in place to allow smooth version upgrades. Taking the
stance that these will be the absolutely last thing added to move to 1.0
assures that they most likely will not be of release quality precisely when you
move to 1.0. 

Maybe being in competition with Windows makes you feel you can skimp on user
relations and quality control, but exactly the opposite is true. An OS project
is exactly as valuable as the community it attracts. Trusting someone like V.
to be gatekeeper here is costing you dearly. It's time to look at _why_ it's
taking you so long to get to 1.0.
