Build a stable release

[fiasco]

We've been running beta releases for a while now and we should really be moving our efforts towards making a stable release. The next steps in that process are:

1. Create a Milestone (RC1?)
2. Tag existing issues in the issue queue with the RC1 Milestone that should be fixed before making a stable release.
3. Create and tag new issues that are blockers to a RC1 Release
4. Create new issues that are blockers for a stable release (but maybe present in an RC1 release).

We now have a release schedule using milestones. We can switch a milestone to 2.0 when we're ready to release.
