+
+I'm pleased to announce the release of version 0.0.8. Please check the
+[release notes]({{< ref "docs/Developer Documentation/Scintillator-Release-Notes.md" >}}) for details, but in short this
+is an incremental release, with a few bugfixes, adding support for versions of Linux as old as Xenial, and more control
+over server execution ordering of Scinths via ScinGroups.
+
+The ScinGroup work sets the stage for an important feature, render targets. By being able to render offscreen, and
+control how a group of Scinths are rendered, the server now has a basis to support VGens that sample rendered images.
+This in my mind completes an important "cycle" of VGen development, because feedback loops are now possible. On a more
+practical level, this render target feature enables things like blur shaders and 3D rendering with depth buffers. As a
+result the first feature planned for 0.0.9 is going to be the render target work detailed in
+[164](https://github.com/ScintillatorSynth/Scintillator/issues/164).
+
+I've moved Scintillator to a monthly release cadence, to simplify release and feature planning. There's a
+[backlog](https://github.com/ScintillatorSynth/Scintillator/milestone/2) milestone on GitHub which is where I intend to
+pull work and move it to a specific release milestone. If you'd like to see a certain feature or issue prioritized,
+please do shout about it! Your feedback is very important to me. Scintillator has an ambitious road map and a broad
+feature set. I like working on all of it, so if there's some feature you have a use case for, or some bug that is
+keeping you from using the software by all means let me know, most likely I'll be able to accommodate.
