Welcome to another “This week in Erlang” newsletter! As you may have noticed it’s been a while (too long?) since I’ve put out one of these. People started thinking this is marking the death of TWIE, that is wrong and we won’t stop these newsletters! Ever?
Now; it’s been too long for me to do a “week summary”, so in this edition I’m just including some of the things I found around recently. I’m keeping it very small just to get the ball rolling :)

Library of the week
This time we have a library/project/application from Marcelo Gornstein (@mgornstein). Marcelo is writing a CI server in Erlang. This is a very ambitious and interesting project. I’m sure he needs help wherever he can get it! So go on, clone, play around, commit, and open a PR!
