runc, which the entire container ecosystem has been depending on the past 7 years, got it's first stable release last week after almost 100 release candidates :)
The very first version of runc in the official repos was 0.1.0, not 0.1.0alpha1 or anything of the sort. Many projects get packaged and relied upon in a stable manner for a long time before hitting their 1.0 milestone releases, and this is completely fine. I've packaged a bunch of them myself too. This is completely unrelated to any version of any software that states that it's an alpha edition of e.g. "1.0.0". Typical practice is to package 0.9.x or whatever, not 1.0.0 alpha48, since the former, despite being pre-1.0, is still denoting a more stable version than "alpha48". -- Eli Schwartz Bug Wrangler and Trusted User
