Why's that?
Aside from my opinion and bulia's, read our reviews in the press. The universal expectation out there for a 1.0 release includes a lot more feature and UI work.
Just to pick one example: I wouldn't dare release a 1.0 without a proper layers dialog.
Then there are some other aspects.
One of which is API's/extensions, etc.
One thing people tend to expect is that extensions/plugins for some 1.0 product would stay compatible with 1.1, 1.2, etc. all the way up until 2.0. We've got a surprisingly functional API at the moment, however people have roughed out a much better long-term API. I'd personally say a stable and robust extensions API is one of the critical things needed for a "1.0".
