Great! I was doing one last pass on the binary Dockerfiles and realized
that the release should *probably* be unpacked in /usr/local/share
instead of /usr/local/lib. I'll make that change and submit sometime
later.

If you could submit a pull request on release that'd be fantastic! For
the upcoming 1.8.1 release, I think you should need to do only the
following things:

1. Run `./update.sh 1.8.1`
2. Delete the 1.8.0 folder
3. Update the aliases map in generate-stackbrew-library.sh
4. Commit all changes and make a pull request

After merging, all the building for the "unofficial" images should
happen automatically. Then presuming evertyhing looks good I'll update
the manifest and ask the Docker Official Images team to merge it.

I don't think anything needs to be changed about the key pair. There are
no requirements on how trusted it is, etc. only that the full
fingerprint be used and easily visible so they and any other user can
confirm it's the correct one. If you do decide to change the key for
whatever reason, just update it in the Dockerfile templates before
running the update.sh script.
