Fixes #529.

@newAM I think it's now just about merging this, cargo publish and pushing a tag? Please let me know if I can be for further assistance in getting the release out.

I have 16 unread heapless issues/pull-requests I need to check before this incase there's anything important that needs to go into this release. It will be a bit of time before I can get to that, work is very busy for me right now unfortunately.

That's fair. Although there can always be more releases and any breaking changes could be postponed to 1.0. 0.8.0 was more than a year ago and there's been some important fixes that didn't get released.

If you like, I can try to backport some of the fixes on top of 0.8.0 so a 0.8.1 could be rolled out to get those fixes out?

Hmm.. I had a look at the frequency of PRs coming in and it seems high enough to assume that you'll have more PRs to review/look at after you're done with those 16 PRs and that will further delay releasing of fixes than it already is.

My offer to get fixes backported to 0.8 and rolling out 0.8.1 still stands but I really think unreviewed new PRs shouldn't stop a release from happening.

@zeenix, I have added the remaining issues and PRs that should still land in 0.9.0 to the v0.9.0 milestone.

I agree with not letting new PRs delay this further.

Thanks so much. Look at the list, it seems we can release now, if you there is nothing else?

[reitermarkus]

Nothing else from my side.

@rust-embedded/libs, anything else you can think of? If not, I'll merge this later today.

[newAM]

I didn't do a thorough check, but nothing from my side.

[zeenix]

woohoo. 🥳

Thanks so much @newAM and @reitermarkus. 🙏
