Sumana

Open Source Bridge was good. I gave three presentations that were well-received ["Learn Tech Management in 45 Minutes," "What's New in MediaWiki 1.17 and How You Can Help," and "Nerdy Stand-up Comedy" (my 25-minute routine)]. I recruited some volunteers to work on MediaWiki stuff, gave out lots of fliers describing open WMF positions and developed a few promising candidates, and schmoozed a LOT. During the closing ceremonies, I was named one of three Open Source Citizens by the conference. User:Sumanah/TODO

• Sumana: look into getting Wikia people commit access. Who already has it?
