So who is here for the office hour? Please raise your hands. :) What I've been doing lately is shown on http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/status but I am going to summarize and elaborate on the most interesting latest stuff: With regard to the task list and plans for next months, see http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/Task_list  Does that feel right to you?
