scriptworker 0.8.2 and 0.7.2

Tl;dr: I shipped scriptworker 0.8.2 ( changelog ) ( github ) ( pypi ) and scriptworker 0.7.2 ( changelog ) ( github ) ( pypi ) last Monday (Oct 24), and am only now getting around to blogging about them.

These are patch releases, and fix the polling loop.

The fix for bug 1310120 - puppet reinstalls scriptworker on every run exposed some scriptworker loop bugs: because puppet was restarting scriptworker regularly, we never had a long-running instance before.

:kmoir and :Callek noticed that signing scriptworker wasn't signing (nagios alerts on stuck queues are pending =\ ). It was clear that while git polling was continuing on its merry way, the task polling was dying fairly quickly. We also needed more logging around fatal exceptions.

I addressed these issues in scriptworker 0.8.2 . We also have our third scriptworker contributor , :jlorenzo ! ( :jlund was #2)

Since we already had the 0.7.1 release to help other scriptworker instance types from having to deal with the churn from pre-1.0 changes, I backported the 0.8.2 fixes to the 0.7.x branch and released 0.7.2 off of it. This involved enough merge conflicts that I'm hoping to avoid too many more 0.7.x releases.
