Congratulations on this milestone release, we're using Nomad since March this year on a single 'bare-metal' server and it serves our needs perfectly. We set it up with a simple gorilla/mux API in front and use the Nomad API to submit jobs from all our other applications and it works flawlessly.
With regards to 1.0's features:
HCL2 is a welcome addition for us since we had a lot of repetition in our job files using artifacts for tasks.
Also the addition of the PostStop lifecycle couldn't come at a better time, we were discussing workarounds for this recently.
One area of potential improvement would be the behaviour of file/directory permissions through different task drivers, I know this is totally dependent of the different drivers we can use with Nomad but more than once we bumped into this while setting up our jobs (and others too [1][2])
