Egads, can you believe it's been this long since the freeze?  What
happened???

Well what happened was we realized that we had moved over to Alembic by
default in GMG 0.9.0 but oh nooooo actually we had no plugin strategy
and a number of other problems.

AND SO, that took a while to fix.  Well, now it's fixed!  With some
pretty hefty changes to git master regaring migrations.

Technically everything is tip top ready to go on this release, but maybe
it needs a day or two of testing?

Anyway, we'll release shortly, unless we git hit by some other large
fast moving issue!  Let's hope not!

Onwards and upwards,
