The announcement for 1.0 was posted on the 21st of October 1993.

> Was there any prior release released publically?

The oldest news group entry that contains the word "fvwm" is this:

  http://groups.google.de/groups?selm=1993Jun1.201340.7363%40klaava.Helsinki.FI&output=gplain

So it seems the first public release (0.5) was announced on 1st of
June in 1993. It was part of rxvt-1.1c. After that, the next
reference I could find was the 0.82 release on 9th of July.
