We have several potential tasks for 1.8.0: 1) streamline release process 2) Guava 18 compatibility (JCLOUDS-622) 3) reparent chef to core
I suspect we need another week to finish these tasks; I can finish 2 but do we have owners for tasks 1 and 3? Given these outstanding tasks can we plan for either 21 or 28 July? I can help on either of these dates.
