Been away from HA for a while and just received notification of the impending release of Home Assistant Core V1.0, to be more precise Home Assistant Core v 1.0.0b4 - 1.0.0b4 is now released.
I stopped upgrading way back at version v0.96.4 so it is indeed a milestone that’s on the way. Should be interesting to see how this version compares to the version I locked on way back.
