Shipping Celebration

What did we ship this month? Alternatively, what didn't we ship to spare the world the horror?

• (erikrose) peep 2.2 brings a download progress bar.
• (erikrose) Our own Osmose added a Help menu to DXR to spur contribution.
• (erikrose) Release pyelasticsearch 1.0. Pulling 5000 downloads a day.
  • Support modern versions of ES.
  • Fix broken Python 3.x support.
  • Go 15x faster (pushed up all the optimizations I did for DXR).
  • Lots more
• (Osmose) Snippets is no longer dumb! https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1091939
• (erikrose) Sugardough now uses peep (2.1) by default. Air Mozilla now uses peep. This removes a vendor lib with 1200 files.
• (lorchard) badges.mozilla.org is slowly waking from a long slumber
  • To modernize the project I did a bunch of things
    • Switch from vendor submodules to peep + virtualenv
    • Switch from Vagrant + Puppet to Docker + Fig
    • Upgrade all the dependencies (except Django)
