Roadmap/Incubating

I've got some longer term ideas for Wolfpack and I'm starting to get suggestions for features and improvements from Wolfpack users - so I have started a Roadmap page to keep a track of them and give a clear view of the direction it's going in. To help flesh out individual ideas I'll start a discussion thread here (prefixed "Incubating") - this gives everyone a chance to contribute to the discussion of what it is and how to design/develop it.

Contrib

Wolfpack now has a contrib project! :) Started by Rob Gibbens (@RobGibbens) it extends Wolfpack to provide new Health Checks and Publishers (email, MongoDb) and goes without saying the NuGet packages are available too (just search for "wolfpack")! Nice one Rob!
