Review request for shindig and Ryan Baxter.


Changes
-------

Adding the full dev list


Summary
-------

osapi.container.GadgetSite.prototype.render fails to render a gadget using a 
given view when that gadget does not explicitly define that view, even in the 
case where the container configuration has aliases for that view.

For instance, Gadget A supports the "profile" and "canvas" views only. The 
container configuration defines the "home" view and provides "profile" as an 
alias for "home". In the use case where the container tries to render Gadget A 
using the "home" view, gadget render will fail, even though the gadget supports 
"profile" and it has been specified as an alias for "home" in the container 
configuration.

This problem commonly manifests itself in Shindig because of the way "default" 
views are handled. By default, Shindig will attempt to render the gadget using 
the "default" view. If the gadget does not support that view, rendering will 
fail. 


This addresses bug SHINDIG-1596.

Testing
-------

Tested rendering a gadget in the "default" view case where the gadget doesn't 
support default.
