cant really say :( the reason to stick with 0.9.8.5 has been that
- we know it works for all what we need it for :).
- Our internal product development teams are using, so we want to stick
as close as possible to that environment (easies bug verification etc)

There has been on the mailing list people who have talked about SB 1.0
and there are known cases of maemo rootstraps to work on SB 1.0 but
still we havnt officially moved to 1.0 because of above reasons.

No body really has put in time to evaluate why to move to SB 1.0
(especially since the 0.9.8.5 version works well for our needs, so there
is no great significant itch).

I am not so upto date on all developments, but what would be the major
reason to move to SB 1.0 and what are the impacts if any ?
