Sugar goes through a development process with different stages [1], 0.107.0
is a release during the stage where we haven't yet freeze features, API,
strings etc, and these could still change before the final 0.108 release.

Doesn't means it is "unstable" in terms of quality of software, but, of
course, the quality will be improved in each following release until the
final 0.108.0 release.

the better and at the same time each deployment has the freedom to decide
if that release is good enough for them.


Martin.
