So push 1.0.5 beta now with purple changes, and leave it in beta until  
1.1 and then do a dual release? Sounds pretty good, but: Are there  
semantics in sparkle for not upgrading someone who is on an OS we no  
longer support? If not, we'll need to do 1.0.5 anyway to add that. We  
don't want a 10.3 user having Adium be horked because they download 1.1.

How did we do this for 0.89.1 -> 1.0?
