working for Francis for five years today!
 * Deryck: Aaron has pulled ec2 test into lp-dev-utils
 * Francis: Bluetooth is back working in Precise! The canonical-tech 
emails are becoming more practical; he liked Mark’s “learning 
organization” email.
 * Gary: Our charms are in the repository; our buildbot runs are 
working; we did a pretty good on our bi-weekly goals.
 * Matt: Lousy pessimist?  Pleased with how Huw is doing with the 
difficult problems in the MaaS project; feels lucky to have him & 
everyone else in product team.
 * Julian: Juju branch has been merged to add MaaS provider! The MaaS 
project continues to go well thanks to the product team and Raphael. 
Pleasant surprise: Australia does not suck!
 * Robert: Lousy pessimist, second week in a row!  He is pleased with 
the work he is seeing in the Launchpad team.  Curtis asks if we will be 
ready to switch to Postgres 9.1 soon.  We are waiting on some hardware 
issues.

= Weekly feature check-point report =
Julian: MaaS has gone well.  Juju stuff has landed.  Not yet working 
because the cobbler environment is not ready yet.  The UI has gone very 
well.  Huw is working on dashboard: dynamically updated pie charts. 
Current state: when you bootstrap with juju, it works with zookeeper, 
charms, and other things.  A compete end-to-end test is upcoming this 
week.  Deliverables for next week: dashboard and integration with installer

Gary: Parallel testing. Buildbot charms are in Juju repository; EC2 has 
Launchpad tests running in parallel (with many failures).  Waiting on 
webops for machine for experiments and for deployment plan approval. 
Next two weeks we will deliver experimental results and bug fixes for tests.

Matthew: Work item tracker going well: ready to migrate blueprints to 
production now, and about to work on the teams and individual work-items 
view pages.  Dan has information showing that they are on the right 
track.  Might be done 2 or 4 weeks.
