“So 1.1 beta is pretty cool,” we hope you are saying to yourself, “but when is 1.1 going to be released?” Hopefully the answer is very soon, but as always the real answer is, “When it's ready.” We really want to get 1.1 in everyone's hands, but we need to make sure it's solid. Right now we have at least one random crasher that we are hunting down, the sporadic “some pages don't render until the window is resized” bug, and a few smaller regressions. What we really don't want is to ship 1.1 and have people saying “1.0 was much more stable; I guess I'll stick with that.”
So we've basically locked down our features, and are limiting most bugfix work to things that are regressions from 1.1. The last thing we want to do at this point is risk adding more bugs while we squash the last of the bugs we know we have in 1.1 beta. So while we are definitely filing away all the feature requests we are getting in response to the renewed interest sparked by the release of the beta, whatever awesome new feature you suggested, no matter how much we would like to implement it, is not going to be in 1.1 if it's not 1.1 beta. Right now our all-consuming priority is to get 1.1 out to everyone who has been patiently for all the cool new features we've already added since 1.0. On the other hand, we do want to hear about each and every “this works in 1.0.x but not in 1.1” problem you see, so we don't accidentally leave you wanting to stay with 1.0.
