 * It’s clearly not a patch release when you add functionality and big rewrites,
   nor is a 2.8.0 version number indicating it’s a patch release according to SemVer–
   so even this correction is wrong. 😉
 * This version can anyhow not be used on anything bellow PHP 8.0.2, even if installed
   manually, because of the added dependencies (Composer), which probably also should
   have been mentioned in the change log – even if you have chosen to follow your
   own path for PHP requirements out of sync with Woo itself.

 * Hi,
 * Thank you for noting the typo, we will update the next release!
 * Regarding the PHP requirements we’ve already set the requirements to 8.0 as you
   mentioned so it’s not included in the patch notes.
 * Best regards

 * Such typos can have negative effects, when the updates are being flagged wrongly,
   so better ensure it not happens again.

 * Yes, but you also have said it can be installed manually on lower PHP versions.
 * Anyhow it was the addition of the required dependencies I had in mind, that you
   should have noted. 😉

 * Maybe you need a checklist to follow when releasing new versions?
 * And also, don’t try to hide mistakes or other changes, always log everything.
   In this case, if someone manually updates (t.ex. by ftp), they should also know
   about this particular mistake, so they can delete the folder (even if it was 
   out just a short time).

 * Hi,
 * We do have a checklist that we follow but we were a bit too fast this time. We’re
   only human.
 * Thank you for pointing out the fact that the trunk directory got in the release
   as well. That wasn’t really a part of the release (hence not being in the change
   log) but a result of being quick with the next version. We’ll have a look at 
   that release and perhaps remove it altogether since it cases issues.
 * Best regards
