    * jlab launcher
    * backup & restore
        * New tasks/issue to be created soon
    * updates to gallery
* [Marcelo] -- Recent Grafana updates -- Should we present the user with the option to ran kubectl commands directly, or could we also leverage the commands automaticaly as part of the Upgrade command?
    * [Ken] Found the commands clear enough, but its difficult to understand the impacts of these changes, and if such changes can be easily rolleback.  
    * [Marcelo, Rich, Vini] Important to make sure we are running in the correct k8s context.
