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.
