David Greenspan ca9b8f571f Version bumps
Tried to get everything to an rc.0 of the very latest version,
which required some research in some cases about the published
versions.  For example, some packages had version histories like:

```
...
  1.0.3-winr.2               January 20th, 2015
  1.0.3-winr.3               February 24th, 2015   installed
  1.0.3                      March 17th, 2015      installed
  1.0.4-anubhav.0            August 6th, 2015
  1.0.4-plugins.0            July 22nd, 2015
  1.0.5-galaxy.0             July 17th, 2015
```

In this case, I would bump the version from `1.0.4-plugins.0`
to `1.0.5-rc.0`, skipping `1.0.4`.

http

HTTP provides an HTTP request API on the client and server. To use these functions, add the HTTP package to your project with $ meteor add http.

See the HTTP section in the Meteor docs for more details.

Direct access to npm request API

On the server, the http package is implemented using the npm request module. If you'd like direct access to this module, you can find it at HTTPInternals.NpmModules.request.module. Its version can be read at HTTPInternals.NpmModules.request.version.

Additionally, you can override any request option when using HTTP.call (or HTTP.get, etc) by including a npmRequestOptions option.

The version of request used may change incompatibly from version to version of Meteor (or we may even replace it with an entirely different implementation); use at your own risk.
