This is a good point, and one that has worried me for some time.

I think the solution to this particular problem is:

	* Release with a name that specifically states whats in it

		Mono Core 1.0

	* Release a roadmap with the plans for when features will be
	  added to the full Mono release.

Maybe we need better names than `Mono Core' and `Mono Full'.
