Folks have been using React in production since way before version 0.12, which is when Facebook should have released version 1.0. Releasing 1.0 doesn't in any way limit your ability to make changes in the future. It does, however, allow for more nuanced semantic versioning with the full range of major, minor, and patch versions. This extremely is useful for both library authors and consumers.

Better late than never, I suppose, but I just don't understand the pointless sentiment that results in waiting to release a fabled "1.0" release.
