Why the version still is 0.x.x?

Despite this module was used in many projects, it was only used by his author. It not means that it is unstable or was not tested, but it means that it was tested by a single person, which puts it to a beta state.

Help us to move out from v0 and tell us you are using this project. When we reach 10 dependents we will move to v1.
