+As we are getting to the end of this iteration, it is time to take stock of what we have:
+
+## What went well
+
+After being picked up by some influential tweeters, the Code52 room became the most popular room on JabbR - far surpassing our wildest expecations this far along. We also picked up some new contributors, and it was excellent to 
+
+So we currently have a collection of *sprockets* (components which interact with users in a chat room) and *announcers* (components which periodically execute tasks and notify the chat room when new things have occurred). Important features include:
+
+ * **Calculator Bot** - too lazy to open calc.exe? ask the bot!
+ * **Volunteer Sprocket** - (jokingly) assign work to a random person in the room
+ * **Weather Sprocket** - find out the weather for a specific zip code (US only :( )
+ * **Quiz Sprocket** - use a quiz to break up the quiet times
+ * **GitHub Announcer** - track activity on a Github repo (and its forks)
+ * **Twitter Announcer** - display tweets for a specific account
+ * **UserVoice Announcer** - track activity in a UserVoice forum
+ * **CruiseControl.Net Announcer** - notify activity from a build server
+
+These are run inside a console application with scheduling supported.
+
+## What could be improved
+
+We didn't quite get to the "feature complete" point this week, as I suspect we (ed: @shiftkey) were too ambitious with our goals.
+
+We have a fork which is running on AppHarbor, but we encountered a few hurdles.
+
+ * MEF and AppHarbor aren't playing nice - [Paul Stovell](http://twitter.com/paulstovell) suggested that it should be supported as FunnelWeb does it. To be investigated.
+ * The website UI only has the basic functionality - to start and stop a bot - and lacks the ability to run specific sprockets or announcers.
+ * The components require APIs to support start and stop behaviour.
+ * The packages and website should be deployable 
+ * [Paul](http://twitter.com/aeoth) just mentioned that [AWS Free Tier](http://aws.amazon.com/free/) now supports a micro Windows instance. Interesting...
+
+ Here's a couple of screenshots of the website UI:

+## Fun statistics
+
+The [punch card graph](https://github.com/Code52/JibbR/graphs/punch_card) over at GitHub this month is very interesting.

+## What next?
+
+The outstanding tasks are up on the new [Trello board](https://trello.com/board/jibbr/4f0f5e8ed8920290334bd12f). Feel free to add new idea to the backlog - or start work on one! Issues still go on our Github [Issues Page](https://github.com/code52/jibbr/issues) to discuss with the team. [Brendan](http://twitter.com/shiftkey) is speaking at a user group on Wednesday, so any discussion on these tasks may be delayed until he can get the code ready to merge upstream.
