When will we see 0.8?

[Benjamin Higgins <bh...@gmail.com>]

I've heard it's pretty stable.  Should I use 0.8 CVS now or wait for it to
be officially released?

Is there a friendly changelog for 0.8?

Also, will 0.8 require its own Tomcat instance like 0.7 did, or will it play
nice not being the ROOT?

We're using it, since we wanted some of the new features. During testing
some problems turned up, that we were luckily able to fix easily with
available patches. For those where e.g. there was a new feature but the
 patch not yet rewritten from 0.7 to 0.8 we've submitted an updated
patch. So I guess a basic 0.8 should easily work for you. If you got
problems in one area, see jira or ask here.

But as always: If you want something stable (read: without using at
least one finger to touch source), go for 0.7 imho.

Not sure, sorry.

Works as non-root. There is also a very simple patch in jira to
implement that for 0.7 as well (1 line if I remembere right).

FWIW, I run 0.7.2 non-ROOT
