The number is a little bit important if we want to package up the 
resultant code into a FreeBSD, Fink or DarwinPorts port/package.  They 
rely on the version number incrementing in a predictable way.

Can I make a small suggestion?

Since the last "stable" release was 1.1.0 over 18 months ago and we 
have been working with 1.1.4 and 1.1.5, perhaps we could bump the 
version number up to 1.2 for this release and then the quarterly 
releases could be 1.2.x.  That should carry us through until 2.x.x is 
ready.  From the talk on the list it doesn't seem likely there will be 
an update worthy of calling 1.3.x. :)
