GNOME 1.0 Released

· Score: 1
I ran most of the 0.99.x series, and unless they've fixed more bugs in the last two weeks than they have since 0.99.0, then gnome is still way too unstable for the 1.0 tag.
I *heart* Gnome, but please. Giving something a 1.0 version number before it's stable is a bad move.
Linux evangelism has focused largely on how damn stable we are. RedHat is one of the more public commercial faces of Linux, and they're putting their weight behind a project that while incredibly nifty, has more annoying bugs than Win 98.
