Well as i said before mesa demos won't change as fast as mesa (at least
i hope so :)) thus i don't think we will be doing release of mesa demos
just for doing release while nothing change, we could very well endup
with mesa-demos-7.8.3 while mesa will be at 9.0.0 (i know it's unlikely
i am sure we will have need shiny GL 5.0 demos by them to add ;)) thus
i don't think picking 8.0.0 is more silly than picking 7.8.3 and i think
8.0.0 major bump reflect the fact that demo is now a project on its own
with a different buildsystem (automake/autoconf).

I am going to send release annoucement soon, sorry i reply latte but i
am having heavy trouble with my email system).

Cheers,
