(no "tricks" section this week)

Project report Summary:
 * A vacation kept one weekly report from being written, and another weekly 
meeting from happening. Welcome back!
 * We're still hiring for openings in a very cool Python & cloud position, so 
please apply soon if you are interested! We are progressing pretty far along 
the process, though we have many more interviews to make. Interviews consumed 
gary_poster completely, and affected all of us to one degree or another.
 * Interviews have kept gary_poster from running parallel tests, but we expect 
that our three old bug friends are still waiting for us.
 * benji landed some diagnostic information that might help us figure out 
974617/1011847.
 * bac and frankban provided IS with detailed, tested instructions for our 
proposed approach for IS to deploy the LXC test setup.
 * IS has approved our proposed approach to deploying the LXC Launchpad test 
set up. We think. We are waiting on this to be deployed.
 * The lpsetup developer story was planned (largely thanks to frankban) and 
implemented.
 * bac configured the integration tests for lpsetup to run with the unit tests 
prior to every commit to the main branch. We are using Juju to drive 
lxc-within-lxc on a Canonistack Tarmac instance. We think this is extremely 
cool for many reasons--not least of which are the presence of the working, 
gatekeeper integration tests.
 * We've been given a hard date to switch to our next project: September 3. 
Hopefully the buildbot slaves will be deployed and debugged sufficiently by 
then. It's a shame we didn't get to the parallel-ec2test-via-juju plan we 
proposed for another stretch goal, but maybe someone else will get it approved 
and started.

Topics summary:
 * gary_poster: reconciling staff unavailability with kanban work-in-progress 
(WIP) limits
 * gary_poster: OO versus functions, inversion of control, and how much 
agreement is important
 * gary_poster: More incremental success with our integration tests
