with what everyone has done
> !done squashed some bugs
!done commands
> !done pushed to production
> !todo send out notification emails
> !hero caseorganic for bringing Legos!
> !blocking loud noises from construction work
At the end of the day, everyone gets an email with what everyone has !done
> !done squashed some bugs
