That's my report from visiting June's Open Source Bridge conference. I thought this list might especially want to know about:

* A tool to sanitize MySQL databases, to provide realistic but anonymized test data to developers and researchers: https://github.com/davedash/mysql-anonymous * Mozilla on inviting contributors with virtualized dev environments (somewhat like what our ops team is working on): http://opensourcebridge.org/sessions/635 & http://decafbad.com/2011/06/os-webdev-vm/slides.html * Community measurement tools: http://opensourcebridge.org/2011/wiki/Online_Community_Metrics:_Tips_and_Tec... (Mark and I will probably be using some of these tools)

And I got some people volunteering to help with MediaWiki development, bug triage and validation: http://opensourcebridge.org/2011/wiki/What%27s_New_in_MediaWiki_1.17_%26_How... So if you see Charles, Jenka, Drew, Shepherd, or Ruth around, that's what they're up to.

Thanks to the Foundation for paying for my flight!
