DjangoCon last week was good. Not many people run at the scale we do (would have been nice to see the Onion show up). Seems like we're going in the right direction and doing pretty well.

• Django-CSP is ready to go.
• Got Hudson running kitsune's vendor library. Next is staging. Then prod.
• Major reviewing.
• TV series: Rebooted Battlestar Galactica.

• Release-o-mania
  • WebOb 1.0 (not actually a big release, but I figured what the hell, it's been 1.0ish for a long time)
  • Paste 1.7.4
  • PasteDeploy 1.3.4
  • Tempita 0.5 (my first Python 3 package)

  • pip 0.8.1
  • virtualenv 1.5
  • WebTest 1.2.2
  • FormEncode 1.2.3
• I revisited doctest.js and am excited about it (blog post).
• If anyone wants to proofread this really old blog post I forgot about on the webdev blog, I've started another app in the same pattern (JSON API backend, jQuery frontend) and am enjoying it. Or... maybe I should just hit publish and not worry about it.
• graphs.mozilla.org slogging
• Working with Appetizer group in Labs
• I've automated a substantial portion of Hudson setup, should anyone be interested in setting up new Hudson servers (sadly Hudson's API is really thin, so it's kind of hacky)
• A company is forming around cloud hosting, using Silver Lining as one of the components: djangozoom or their less Django-centric alter-ego noderabbit; I'm starting to see a little more community activity around Silver Lining.
• I just finished The Wire. I am ready to govern Reykjavik!
