Our focus for the upcoming 2 sprints (4 weeks) is to finish CLI tooling and implement conventional bootstrapper (@loopback/boot), to bring us closer to our MVP target (see #696).

It's hard to predict how much we can deliver this months because the Holiday Season (most of our team members are taking several days off), therefore this list may be less than is our actual capacity. If we happen to finish the tasks above early, then we will pick more work from our MVP list.

UPDATE (01/09): With the holiday seasons, most of the team was off for different extended period of time which affects the team's velocity. As a result, we're moving the December 2017 milestone to be the Jan 2018 milestone.
