Would it make you feel any more comfortable to learn that Alpine started 
life as Pine 5.0.?

For non-technical reasons (discussed on the Alpine web page), we changed 
the name and reset the version number.  Alpine 1.00 certainly has major 
changes from Pine 4.64 (the last release version of Pine).  But it is no 
less stable by being named "Alpine 1.00" than if it had been named "Pine 
5.00".

Pine 4.64 is two and a half years old now, and has had no updates since 
then.
