[Evergreen-catalogers] Bug Squashing Week - Tuesday Update

[Terran McCanna]

Hi all!

Bug Squashing Week has gotten off to an awesome start! We've already had:

   - 20 bug fixes and new features tested and signed off!
   - 8 new or updated pieces of code submitted!
   - 7 signed off bug fixes and features merged into the main code by the
   core committers!
   - and 71 launchpad tickets updated!

In addition, I'd like to welcome three new participants to Bug Squashing
Week who haven't participated in the past: Chris Amorosi, Devon Bates, and
Mark Massey!

There is still lots of time left for you to participate this week - we have
4 test servers up and running with 36 more proposed bug fixes and features
that haven't been fully tested and signed off on installed. Many of these
are small user interface fixes that should be easy to test, so if you are
able to set aside even half an hour this week to participate, we can get a
lot done!

Thanks everyone!!
Terran

PS: I used an even 10 exclamation points. Goal accomplished.
