This past week we had a lot of great blog posts and some exciting new integrations. The great team at ClusterHQ launched their Kubernetes integration with Flocker, Juniper posted about early work integrating Kubernetes with OpenContrail and more.

Total contributor count to Kubernetes is now at 324. Overall, quite an active week!
