[GMG-Devel] 0.0.5 / 0.1.0 blogpost outline

[Christopher Allan Webber]

I'm handing this over to Deb to turn into a blogpost, but thought I'd
run it by the list... a couple of caveats: a couple of items are
"commented out" (start with #) which means they may or may not make it
into the release, or in terms of the contributors, I'm not sure about if
they did contribute or not.  Unfortunately, due to a known issue it's
impossible for me to see who all submitted translations for sure.  If
you know that someone's missing from the contributor list because of
this, or if anything else is wrong here, please reply!
