Hi everyone,

Now that 0.8 has materialized, it falls on us to implement it. There were
over 40 changes in this version of the spec, and they affect everything from
the gadget schema to various features.

Some of these changes have already been implemented. Almost all of them are
backwards compatible with 0.7, and the ones that aren't are mostly not
compatible for minor reasons that allow us to treat them as compatible
changes anyway.

Please speak up (ideally open a JIRA issue) about any implementations of 0.8
items so that we don't step on each other's toes. I'll be diving into
various pieces soon, and I suspect others will be doing the same. If anyone
has a pressing need to get certain items implemented sooner rather than
later, but isn't comfortable with trying to submit a patch, please send us
an email and we'll see what we can do. We will eventually get all 0.8 items
implemented, but naturally we're going to have a certain bias towards
implementing things that we need personally at a higher priority than
others.

Thanks,

~Kevin
