because:

    -it fixed major brokenness that people have reported
    -it wasn't a ton of work
    -it didn't add major features or change the behavior of anything
     (other than fixing brokenness)
    -it made the code easier to maintain

i'm trying to fix up this 1.0.0 branch so that it can be released in
very good shape. after that happens i'll leave it go and do nothing
more with it than fix bugs, and future work will be on the head branch.
i think the 1.0.0 point is really close, and the only other changes to
it i'm really looking to make is to incorporate mon.cgi, maybe pick a
monitors or two from contrib, and touch up the docs.

nothing in 1.0.0 should hold up a 1.1 release, really. after all, it's
the "development" branch.
