And it's over! We reached our immediate goal, "closing" all the lost PediaPress tickets (80 before the bug day); and about 40 new bugzilla reports were filed, including some tricky ones about language support.
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/Triage/201410 has a dump from the etherpad and will be updated with more precise information. Give a look at the bugzilla reports!
Thanks to all the participants: Andre Klapper, Anomie, Azitrex, bawolff, Helder, John Vandenberg, Kelson, Nemo, Raymond, Reedy, Rupert, saper, Steinsplitter, csteipp, ebraminio, jem, josu, kepper, valhallasw`cloud. (And probably someone else in bugzilla at the same time.)

Hello,
Please join us on the next Wikimedia bug day:
**2014-10-08, 14:00–22:00 UTC** [1] in #wikimedia-tech on Freenode IRC.[2]
We will be triaging bug reports for the Collection extension (Book tool) in general and PDF export in particular, which were just switched to a new backend (OCG).[3] We have two immediate goals:
- recover 100 % of the relevant reports from the defunct PediaPress
tracker;[4] 2) get a clean list of known PDF issues that the new backend didn't fix.
Everyone is welcome to join any time these weeks, and no technical knowledge is needed! It's an easy way to get involved or to give something back. We encourage you to record your activity on the etherpad [4].
This information and more can be found here: https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/Triage/201410
For more information on triaging in general, check out https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Bug_management/Triage
I look forward to seeing you there. Please distribute further by email, talk pages etc. (Collection is used on almost 2 thousands wikis!) Sorry for the crossposting, Nemo

Thank you Nemo for having organised this!

Yes, thank you all so much!
I've been busy trying to fix as many of the issues found as possible.
Note that I'll be on vacation next week (2014-10-11 - 2014-10-17) so don't panic if my latency increases. Keep filing those bugs and I'll keep squashing them when I get back. --scott
