 * i18n triage
 * Bug #164 “Support collation by a certain locale” and Bug #29000 “Allow font selection by language” took up most of the time, but we got resources allocated for other bugs, too.


 * Operations Escalation
 * Since a number of the bugs in Bugzilla depend on Operations, I needed better way to communicate with Ops people about high priority items. CT Woo had most (all?) of the Operations people in SF a couple of weeks ago and was able to set up a way for us to interact.  We agreed to meet on Thursdays in order to sync up our action items.


 * NOLUG & NOLAPHP
 * After hearing Erik say that he was concerned that the NOLA hack-a-thon wasn't going to have as much participation from outside of WMF, I emailed NOLUG (of which I used to be a member and whose mailing list I still participate on). I should have asked Sumanah to intervene when Joey asked “Is this intended to be wiki-centric? I'd love to hack, but not wiki stuff.”  Her reply was better than mine.
 * All was not lost, though. In the process, I reminded Ryan Lane to let the NOLAPHP group (of which he is a member) know about the Hack-a-thon, and pointed Sumana to other regional user groups that might be intersted in the event.
