Fellow Report - December 19, 2015

[Tim Graham]

I spent about 2 days this week working on helping Adrienne launch the next round of fundraising (see "Authored" section for some details -- there were also a dozen or so other small pull requests that I didn’t bother to list). There might be some odds and ends to do next week, but I hope to be back to focusing more on Django itself. I’d like to release 1.9.1 and 1.8.8 by January 1. It might happen next week if the blockers are down to zero by the end of the week.
