Hi Meem and Gordon,

The bump from 0.71 to 1.0 was resulted from the discussion whether to
remove or remain the version string:
- The iteam prefer keeping version number as a tracking mechanism,
- while 0.71 could make it look like a prototype alike product.
so it's bumped to 1.0 after the discussion.

For the granuality of version number increment, I wasn't able to realize
that 0.1 is not proper. Adding 0.1 will cause the version to 2.0 after
10 times putback. So according to previous practice, 0.01 should be
working. That's to change the version like this:
     35 static char bge_ident[] = "Broadcom Gb Ethernet v1.0";
->
     35 static char bge_ident[] = "Broadcom Gb Ethernet v1.01";

Cheers,
Crisson
