+1, yeah I kinda agree with the major version bump. But also it's
important to note that Ironic which was affected by that was relying
on be able to POST nonexistent fields to create resources and WSME
would just ignore those on versions <= 0.8.0. That's a legitimate bug
that have been fixed in WSME (and projects shouldn't have relied on
that in the first place).
Cheers,
