I think this looks pretty good. Not sure how detailed this should be, I think it includes all PRs. I would wait for the rest of the 0.8-marked PRs to land and we could publish it afterwards.

I wouldn't add new ones to 0.8 (we could already create the 0.9 milestone and add issues/PRs to it)

We should add #388, #395, #397, #362. Also a mention of the CoC, even if it's not a feature nor a fix would be nice.

In general, I think that we should include almost all of these: https://github.com/jasonwilliams/boa/pulls?q=is%3Apr+sort%3Aupdated-desc+milestone%3Av0.8.0+
