Does anyone understand what the end objective of V is? I've known about this language for I think 4-5 years and for some reason it's still v0.5...?

No it has not been 0.5 for years. Check their homepage. You can see the timeline for the releases there. 0.5 was released a few days ago and is a major step for the language.

The Vlang site makes it clear what their objectives are[1]. "Simple, fast, safe, compiled. For developing maintainable software." They also have a roadmap[2], showing what their end objective version (or production release) will have.

They just came out with version 0.5 (2 weeks ago from this post), so obviously that statement is mistaken.
