That raises questions about the processes creating the software, then.  If 
there are no set standards for features and quality, how is one to tell 
what's good or bad in the software?

Developers who don't want to get "hung up on numbers" should stop using 
misleading version numbers, or just number the releases sequentially, or 
anything but using numbers around 1.0 that have commonly-accepted 
meanings.
