Final Notes:

Progress and coordination this week proved to be a challenge due to scheduling and technical reasons for many of us. We are on track and excited about our progress. Our plan was to launch some of our new community efforts this week, however more development and testing is needed to ensure our efforts are effective and well received.

Above all, we are focused on delivering quality work and service to the community and there is no doubt that extra time spent now on additional development, planning and strategy will benefit our efforts in the long run. We are all looking forward to showing the community what we've been up to and it won't be much longer before we can.
