We had our first partner roll-out, pending resolution of remaining operations issues. Max Semenik joined the project to build better MediaWiki API support for Vumi and rewrite the Vumi plugin for Wikipedia.

Max finished his work for better Api support. Patrick worked with Praekelt to finish creating Debian packages for Vumi. Were now taking the packages that PraeKelt built and are using those to build our own

Patrick wrapped up work packaging vumi and we're just waiting on operations to install the production system. Next we'll be blog posting about the service so that users can test it over jabber while we work with our various partners to connect it to mobile phone networks. This will wrap up our initial implementation of this project.
