I just noticed that three pieces of software that I often use are in version 1.1:
- Visual Studio (OK, so it’s really version 7.1 of VS, but the Framework is in v1.1)
- Community Server
- My web mail client
I thought that was kind of interesting and it got me thinking about other “v1.1” things. The first thing that came to mind was my actual web sites — this blog site and my “other” site, ScottIsaacs.com. This blog was intended to be a minor upgrade to the functionality provided by my original site — just until version 2.0 comes out.
Another, more important one-point-one is my career. I’ve been through the 0.x pre-alpha stage, the major 1.0 release and then a minor upgrade.
Maybe I should try to upgrade my web sites and career and launch a new version in coordination with the next release of the Visual Studio…

Hey Scott,
I love the idea of you pursuing a v2.0 of everything. Believe me, even if the dates slip, you’ll be further ahead by starting development!
Let me know if I can help!
