## Highlights

https://blueprints.launchpad.net/sprints/cloud-oct-2013
- We need to resubmit them to UDS if appropriate:
https://blueprints.launchpad.net/sprints/uds-1311
- 1.16.1 point release coming out this week!
- The "null" provider is now the ssh provider, and shall be forever
known as the ssh provider. All mentions of "null" provider shall be
stricken from the record as soon as it lands. We've always been at war
with Eastasia.

## Tools

- 1.1 release coming tomorrow with support for bundles.
- Minor bug fixes
- Charm testing template included to create boilerplate Amulet tests.

## Helpers

- no changes, tons of discussion, please join UDS for the details,
here's high level view:
  - Packaging for charm helpers, so you don't have to embed them anymore
  - Multiple language support in charm helpers!

## Amulet

- No changes, there will be more coming based on user feedback, no
release date set yet.

## Docs

- More work in the charm author docs specifically.
- Documenting the interfaces is coming
- config pages getting updated to reflect 1.16.
  - Would also like to rework some of the screenshots (HP Cloud changed again).

## Charm Updates

- http://manage.jujucharms.com/recently-changed
- Queue @ http://manage.jujucharms.com/tools/review-queue
- CONTEST OVER! Judging has begun.
- Owncloud has critical fix in the charm queue, needs to get in asap.

- Lots of progress clearning it out over the past 2 weeks, we're
almost out of the hole.

## Bundles

What is a bundle?

- Jorge: Bundles are to charms as metapackages are to packages
- Marco: But you can define bundles of bundles, so it's more like a
bundle is a source package of a package that has multiple binaries.
- Ok enough with the analogies, bundles are sets of charms AND
relations that represent a workload, you deploy that into your cloud
so like.
- You can export a bundle from your GUI by hitting shift-d, and then
share with others
- You'll be able to share you bundle with the community, it's just a
simple yaml file.
- `charm tools` will lint your bundle!
- How do we promulgate official bundles?
- TODO for UDS, we need a session on Bundle policy.
