I want to hook up to this e-mail from @Tony Thomas. First: Special thanks to 
Jon, Quim and Rachel (and the Wikimedia travel team!) to make it possible to be 
there so shortly. It was a great experience, see all people "in real live and 
in color", talk to them and be part of the discussions, presentations and 
shared ideas and visions :)

For me, it was really productive to talk to the peoples directly and discussed 
recent problems and find solutions and first steps to a solution.

Thanks!
Florian

Thanks again to the Foundation for inviting volunteers ( like me ) to the 
summit. It was a great experience to see my mentors and other guys in IRC 
off-line face to face for the first time.
Regarding the BounceHandler extension - I could get various inputs from other 
devs who had implemented the same in their environment. The stay and location 
was superb. I missed some Indian foods though ( thanks to the fruits ). Our 
deployment plans got delayed due to the security bug that came, making the Ops 
team busy. We hope to get it done this week though.
Thanks again Qum and Rachel and other staff+volunteers for such a great event.

Thanks,
