My list, for a first release whatever its version string, is:

* a stable core

* confidence that bug reports against that version will for some
  significant period of time be met with patch releases and not “just
  use a later revision and hopefully it will work”

I don't care whether the first version is “0.7” or “0.1” or “0.0.001” or
whatever. Name it however you want to indicate how incomplete you
consider it to be.

Note that the second criterion is not made based on any specific events
in the history of Bugs Everywhere, but rather general experience with
not-many-versions-released projects. In other words, attempting to stave
off an easily anticipated problem common to software projects everywhere.
