Keep in mind that version numbers are often fairly arbitrary (esp. on open source projects). For example, the Courier mail server, which I've had in production for the past several years, is currently at version 0.63.0. I think it is much more important to look at the age of the product, the amount of development activity, and the size of the user community.
