The plan is for 1.0.x to contain modifications that don't affect the API 
(good additions should be O.K.).  We want extensions compiled against 
1.0.x to work for a long time.  The 1.1 release won't be for at least  a 
year and probably longer.

1.0.1 would be a maintenance release of the 1.0 release.
