 ### Added
 
+- Added same step loggers' metrics aggregation ([#1278](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/1278))
 - Added parity test between a vanilla MNIST model and lightning model ([#1284](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/1284))
 - Added parity test between a vanilla RNN model and lightning model ([#1351](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/1351))
 - Added Reinforcement Learning - Deep Q-network (DQN) lightning example ([#1232](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/1232))

 ### Changed
 
+- Changed (renamed and refatored) `TensorRunningMean` -> `TensorRunningAccum`: running accumulations were generalized. ([#1278](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/1278))
 - Changed `progress_bar_refresh_rate` trainer flag to disable progress bar when set to 0. ([#1108](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/1108))
 - Enhanced `load_from_checkpoint` to also forward params to the model ([#1307](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/1307))
 - Updated references to self.forward() to instead use the `__call__` interface. ([#1211](https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/pytorch-lightning/pull/1211))
