Floating about where? Every developer knows which build they have and which build is the latest one. There's nothing confusing about it unless you are a 5 year old kid.

I think Mavericks will be the buggiest .0 release we've had for a while. I've been using GM since the beginning of october and I never had this many issues with a GM since Leopard. So I really hope .1 will come very soon. One thing amazing about Mavericks is Safari, it really is impressively snappy. No other browser will come close to it in terms of performance on Mac.
Yeah I tried to use firefox, which is my preferred browser on my windows desktop, and I wanted to use it for the firefox sync, but compared to safari in mavericks its like driving a bus vs a ferrari

I hope so. Nobody should blame Apple for doing this, if it is the case.
One thing is for sure anyone who has invested a whole lot of time installing and setting up their new Mavericks install has wasted it. That is, unless you're happy being stuck on 10.9.0 until 10.10 comes out.
It would make no sense for apple to update the GM to "thwart people who torrented it"
Do you guys realize how dumb that sounds? If people could torrent the first GM, then they can obviously also torrent the updated one, it doesn't "disable" anyone. Its just as much of an annoyance to developers as it is to the people who torrented it (developers have had to redownload it from the app store and run the installer, people who torrent it just...torrent the new build instead and run the installer)
