[Dovecot] Dovecot Stable (or: When is 1.0 coming to a server near you?)

[Andrew Hutchings]

Most people (including me) consider the 1.0 stable branch good enough for a 
production environment.  I for one use it for around 6000 users.

As for a final release date it will be a 'when its ready' kinda thing.  Better 
it be released stable than on-time.  Looking at the TODO list I would say 
later this year is likely (possibly Q4), depending on Timo's commitments.

Regards
Andrew
