Works for me.
So 0.19 would become 0.90.0, 1.0 would be 1.0.0 and our 1st monthly
release after 1.0.0 would be 1.1.0.
We need to be confident though that our external communications are
clear enough w.r.t. compatibility commitments. Slightly more
professional Release Notes and Upgrade Guides post 1.0 would achieve
that IMO. As discussed previously, it's not worth making those things
much better than they are now prior to 1.0 though.
