[Devel] Where's 2.0.8 docs+demos?

I see freetype 2.0.8 is released, but the docs and demos packages 
are not updated on the freetype site yet.  It's been several 
weeks now since 2.0.8 was released so I'm wondering if this was 
intentional due to nothing much changing, or if it was just an 
oversight?

Normally updating freetype packaging amounts to downloading the 3
files, dropping them in a dir, bumping the version field of the
spec file, adding a changelog comment, and rebuilding.

Since the docs/demos are at 2.0.7, updating freetype to 2.0.8 and
keeping the 2.0.7 docs/demos will require a fair bit of specfile
hacking, that will likely have to be removed at a later date when
2.0.9 comes out, or when the 2.0.8 docs/demos do show up on the
site.

Right now, I'm planning on just updating to 2.0.7 since it is 
simpler for the time being.  I figured I'd ask what the release 
plans are for 2.0.8 docs/demos first though, or if 2.0.9 will be 
out before long, so I can select the best release to use with 
minimal packaging changes.

Any comments appreciated.  Keep up the good work on making fonts 
look snazzy guys.  You're doing an excellent job.

Take care,
TTYL
