I can't clarify what the next stable version is going to be. But my advice
would be to stop waiting and start using. From my experience the 1.4rcX
versions were all stable enough to be very usable.

Generally I've noticed lately that the idea to make a difference between
stable and development versions of open source software is going away. And
that is generally a good thing because it allows the release of smaller
changes which are way more manageable. And although I have no idea what the
plans of the scribus team are I would wish that they would increase the
release times.
