Hi Niklas, Hope you're OK with me moving this back to the dev list for further discussion.
I've made some minor changes to the blog post, specifically merging the 0.18.2 and 0.18.1 into a single post so the gap between 0.18.0 and 0.18.2 is clear. My diff is attached and named with my last name in the filename. Would like your approval and that of another committer, and then let's #shipit.

I have it ready now - would you mind take a look before I commit to the public svn?

In addition, the Mesos Java artifacts shade the protocol buffer dependency, allowing frameworks to independently declare their protobuf dependency version. Furthermore, a new extract flag has been added to the URI protocol buffer which makes it possible to control whether the fetcher should extract a given artifact. Various bugs in the Mesos master, the containerizer and the JNI code have been fixed as well.
