I have released new version of sg3_utils (for lk 2.4 and lk 2.5) and sg_utils (for lk 2.2 with some support for lk 2.0). This is now reflected on www.torque.net/sg (in a table toward the bottom of the main page) and at freshmeat.net .

The 1.00 indication isn't hugely significant, I just ran out of numbers before it ;-)

Most recent work has been on sg_logs (only in the sg3_utils package). This command displays LOG SENSE pages which on recent disks have a reasonable amount of "S.M.A.R.T" type information (e.g. temperature, number of spin ups, error counter pages). Currently sg_logs makes more information available than smartsuite [ http://sourceforge.net/projects/smartsuite ] which is stronger on ATA disks than SCSI ones.
