[Eg-newdevs] Bug Squashing Week - Final Day!

[Terran McCanna]

Hi everyone,

This has been a wonderfully productive Bug Squashing Week so far, and I
hope all of you who have participated feel good about your contributions to
improving the Evergreen software.

Bug Squashing Week officially ends today, but I know the terran-main test
server will remain up and running until at least Monday and I expect the
others will too in case anyone gets a wild urge to do testing over the
weekend. (For the record, I whole-heartedly recommend that you all get some
well-deserved R&R on your time off, though!)

I'll update the final BSW statistics and send them out on Monday.

Cheers!
Terran
