• Hopefully, signoff on Sauce contract & we resume testing at full volume
• Blog posts and documentation start to come into range.

Fun fact:

• Some of our tests are failing because of a legit bug we found in selenium webdriver; we've been discussing it with the team maintaining wd, our node.js selenium library [1], and we'll be taking it up with the webdriver team.
