[aerogear-dev] Sync Day 3 Sync takes Manhattan

[Summers Pittman]

I've turned M1 into a Jira https://issues.jboss.org/browse/AEROGEAR-1405

Is there any complain to turning each M into an Epic and each bullet 
into a subtask in that Epic?

In theory from here we can group them into versions and releases.
