Hey folks,

I am really excited that we're getting to an OpenSocial v0.8 (well, 0.8.1)
compliant release. I think we'll learn a lot about making Shindig a great
piece of infrastructure through these releases.

To Ian's question, I think we should be careful about the version number: it
seems confusing if we have OpenSocial at v0.8, but Shindig at v1.0.
Shindig's mission/scope is to implement the OpenSocial spec, so it's awkward
to have different numbering systems for the releases of the implementation.
I certainly realize that versions are just arbitrary numbers, but sending
the message that Shindig is at 1.0 is over-promising with regards to
potentially breaking changes and stability, given the state of the
"underlying" spec.

My thought was that this would be a release of Shindig v0.8.
