So IOW, I need to back through every one of my gadgets and re-test all
of their functionality under opensocial-0.8 - and then remove that
Require again from every one of them, otherwise the user will get the
prompt for "Allow this gadget to see my friends". If I can be blunt,
that sucks. Doing a quick test on a couple of my gadgets, I'm finding
widespread problems - so much for "In most cases it won't make a
difference". :^(

Well, at least we have a bit of warning. Thanks for that, Dan.
