Ah okay. From a usage perspective this isn't necessarily clear.

I have opened a couple tickets for issues in 1.0.0-pre1: one is for  
Windows and the other for MacOS X.

On a separate note, the upload form:

is causing me some issues, since it complains about missing version  
number, even when is clearly specified. I wanted to upload the test  
cases.
