Jamie, that wasn't aimed at you at all -- I know that was an honest mistake.

Just explaining why we can't make the name field of metadata required just yet -- the issue wasn't raised until just before the 11.0 release.

Any Opscode people listening?

Breaking compatibility in a minor/patch release is an even better way to troll the world. Or did we all forget that last json gem release already?
