This kind of comment does nothing to help the discussion. This thread
is about defining the "acceptably high standard". Saying 1.0 needs to
meet the standard we've defined for 1.0 is a little silly, no?

"fixing bugs that had hitherto escaped detection" really? What about the
16,000 bugs that had already been detected? 1.0.1 is either going to be
a bugfix tag on the 1.0 branch or it's going to be the next milestone on
the trunk probably about 5 weeks after the 1.0 branch was cut and
containing whichever fixes developers thought important to making the
codebase better. Also, mozilla.org has no plans to make an "official
release of a finished product". Remember that we're talking about a tag
in the source tree for developers and distributrors with binaries
proivided for QA, testing and development purposes only.
