Time to plan for 1.0

[John D. Bell]

Sorry I missed the meeting.  I understand why distro maintainers
wouldn't want pre-1.0 code.  I thought that you would release 1.0 both
as the usual source repo _and_ with "example" packages.  I would expect
that the maintainers might well repackage to suit their tastes.
