Summary

Paul Stovell, founder and CEO of Octopus Deploy, announced a competition in June 2014 to encourage contributions to the Octopus Deploy library, where participants could submit a pull request for a step template to enter a draw for a chance to win a mug. By the end of June, three winners were randomly selected using a PowerShell script on the company's demo server, highlighting the convenience of using a centralized, audited platform for script execution. Contributors who did not win were also promised a token of appreciation. Stovell, who started Octopus with his wife Sonia in 2012, enjoys carpentry and DIY projects in his spare time.
