[aerogear-dev] iOS8: what's new?

[Burr Sutter]

A couple that I noticed (only a few minutes of scanning the headlines)
- WKWebView - a lot of native apps leverage the webview, not just Cordova - to show docs as an example
- NSQualityOfService - might be the way to address backgrounded tasks like checking for some data to sync?
