Don't be swayed by sensational marketing. Yes, Heartbleed was a
newsworthy security lapse. However, overall there were more problems
in 0.9.8 that in its successors, it was lucky to have predated one
particularly newsworthy issue that was introduced in 1.0.0.

Do upgrade to the stable 1.0.2 release. Both 0.9.8 and 1.0.0 are
EOL this month. The final releases of both is slated for today.
