What is "aspie/aspies" supposed to mean now?

I know "aspie" usually stands for people with Asperger's, but I see people use it even when they're participating in a topic about autistic people in general. I don't know if they are talking about people specifically with Asperger's or general autism anymore. Maybe I am taking the use of "aspie" too literally.
Is "aspie" just another general term for "autistic" now, or is it still just for referring to people with Asperger's?
