+GitHub Reflog v1.3.21
+=====================
+
+Welcome to the first edition of The GitHub Reflog. This is a
+new weekly installment chronicling awesome GitHub repos, brought to
+you by `Kenneth Reitz <https://github.com/kennethreitz>`_, one of
+the classy gentlemen behind
+`The Changelog <http://thechangelog.com>`_ and a ton of
+`open source projects <https://github.com/kennethreitz>`_.
+
+
+
+Featured Repo of the Week
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+devstructure/`blueprint <https://github.com/devstructure/blueprint>`_
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+This is one of the coolest projects I've seen in a long time.
+
+Simply put, Blueprint reverse engineers servers. It scans your
+system, records installed packages from various managers (aptitude,
+ruby's gem, python's pip, etc), archives software built from
+source, and records configuration file changes. It then packages
+your entire server configuration into a ``bootstrap.sh`` file with
+an attached archive. You can take that bootstrap package and run it
+anywhere to replicate your server setup.
+
+Then, Blueprint takes it to the next level: it generates full
+recipes/manifests for both
+`Chef <https://github.com/opscode/chef>`_ and
+`Puppet <https://github.com/puppetlabs/puppet>`_ with the
+``blueprint-create {-C | -P}`` command.
+
+Of course, QA is required for the resulting recipes, but it's a
+definitely a great first step for streamlining your existing
+systems.
+
+Bon appétit!

+
+Awesome Repo of the Week

+
+drbrain/`meme <https://github.com/drbrain/meme/>`_
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
+
+I CAN HAS MEME? Meme is an awesome Ruby gem for generating
+memegenerator.net images from the command line. It features SPARTA,
+PHILOSORAPTOR, KEANU, TROLLFACE, and many more. The resulting pull
+requests are definitely
+`worth looking at <https://github.com/drbrain/meme/pull/13>`_.

+Remarkable Repos
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+
+-  taitems/`Aristo-jQuery-UI-Theme <https://github.com/taitems/Aristo-jQuery-UI-Theme>`_:
+     This is not a new project, but it received a lot of attention this
+     week. Aristo is a
+     `beautiful <http://taitems.github.com/Aristo-jQuery-UI-Theme/>`_
+     theme for `jQuery UI <https://github.com/jquery/jquery-ui>`_ that
+     emulates the elegant style of the
+     `Cappuccino <https://github.com/280north/cappuccino>`_ JavaScript
+     framework. jQuery UI has a bad reputation for having
+     less-than-desirable themes available for its widgets. Aristo
+     strives to fix that.
+
+-  brainsik/`virtualenv-burrito <https://github.com/brainsik/virtualenv-burrito>`_:
+     This project simplifies the
+     `virtualenv <https://github.com/pypa/virtualenv>`_/wrapper setup in
+     your Python development environment. Sprinters at last week's PyCon
+     2011 had to spend a large amount of time setting up their
+     environments before they could contribute. This project aims to
+     remove that overhead.
+
+-  maccman/`ichabod <https://github.com/maccman/ichabod>`_:
+     This project lets you run headless WebKit JavaScript tests from the
+     command line. It currently offers Jasmine and QUnit testing
+     support. It also gives you an interactive JavaScript console that
+     has access to the Ruby stack.

+
+
+-  twitter/`commons <https://github.com/twitter/commons>`_:
+     Twitter's internal common libraries for the JVM. Readme and build
+     instructions haven't been written yet, but this looks like an
+     extensive library suite. Everything from a
+     `memcached <https://github.com/memcached/memcached>`_ interface to
+     an argument parser is included. Check out
+     `the documentation <http://twitter.github.com/commons/apidocs/index.html>`_
+     to learn more.
+
+-  extend/`cowboy <https://github.com/extend/cowboy>`_: 
+     This "Small, fast, modular HTTP server" is implemented 100% in Erlang.
+     It's an ambitious project that's still in the early development
+     stage. Contributors are welcome!
