We merged some last schema and api changes:

- in crm, rename type and channel to the google analytic terminology we now have:

crm.tracking.campain (old type)
crm.tracking.source
crm.tracking.medium (old channel)

with a mixin to save those fields on crm.lead and sale.order. This is required 
to track google adwords campains on lead generation and e-commerce shopping carts.

- on purchase.order chaging the date into a datetime (not sure it's merged yet).

- remove the "any type" field from the new api.

I left report_webkit but we will only merge bugfixes in 8.0 and i will remove 
it from master soon, along with the rml report engine.

Simon is working on the packaging, the setup/package.py will allow anyone 
under linux to build the tgz, deb (for debian stable), rpm (for Redhat 7 or 
Centos 7) and even the exe (using wine). MacOS X packaging is also planned. 
The goal is to improve those packages to get them accepted in the various 
linux distributions (debian first).

The rest is only bugfixes.

We are still migrating internally, I will keep you posted about our migration, 
once our migration is done we will migrate the saas and allow new user to 
create database on 8.0.

Then we will bless the packages and tag the release.

You can already safely start working on 8.0, 90% of the diff from v7 to v8 has 
already been battle tested on our saas, only the new api and wms may still 
have bugs. So the stabilization period will be much shorter compared to v7.

We wait for your feedback.
