now is serious... finally we have xvid 1.0 out (and a xvid.org site attack too).

From xvid.org:

This is XviD 1.0.0 final.

The development team is happy to announce the immediate availability of
XviD 1.0.0 release. Though this version number is purely symbolic, it's
still an important step, and the "xvid-team" hopes you'll enjoy all the
efforts that have been put in this 1.0 numbered version. Thanks to all
users who: reported bugs, sent patches and helped us improve XviD up to
 an 1.0 quality level.

Happy encoding and stay tuned for improvements in upcoming releases.

Changes since 1.0.0 RC4 (Hola):

 * xvidcore
- minor bug in trellis quantification optimization.
- speedup for vhq>1 & qpel modes (motion search was done twice,
one in SAD mode and one in RD mode)
- Fixed MV clipping with non valid DivX 5 based sequences.
- Fixed RGB 16 bit C functions.
- Fixed posible VOL header corruption for fps=1 encodes.
- DC misprediction caused by bad value clipping (bug forwarded to the
ffmpeg project too).

* VFW frontend
- Fixed mismatching of hints<->widgets.

* DShow frontend
- none 

I'm praying for get this in stable soon, very soon..
