Ran regular meetings for a few months and a "list of articles all Wikipedias should have" drive to attract to the Swahili Wikipedia
Commons:
Made contact with the organizers of the World Digital Library to discuss long-term sharing of new media. They are interested in providing a feed of new additions for inclusion in Commons
Ran a media competition at the first two Wikimanias with sannse and Bdk, to promote the best images and illustrations from the projects
Wiktionary:
Made contact with Dicologos, the world's largest (and quirkiest) translation dictionary. For a while, they made all of their definitions GFDL, and contracted with someone to help share data between the projects. Currently on hold on their end, but they remain interested
Helped the owner of Textbook Revolution migrate to a MediaWiki instance running Semantic MediaWiki so that they can share data directly with Wikibooks and other wiki textbook projects
Worked with CK-12's CTO when they were designing their licensing and technical plans, later settling on MediaWiki as part of their backend and a CC-BY license for their texts. They are still in the process of designing an export feature that would allow books to be posted directly to WB
Wikiversity:
Helped facilitate a formal presentation of the idea of Wikiversity as a project while on the Special Projects Committee. Wikispecies had recently been started, and there was already a loss of energy for starting new projects at the Foundation level; however after many months of revising the project proposal, it was accepted. (With more attention, this process could be made much easier)
Attended a recent 'OER Discovery' conference in Cambridge with Brion; proposed asking Wikiversity to be part of a global plan for more accessible OER materials as a neutral space for collaboration.

Was an early English Wikinews reporter, covering a few conferences and events and getting photographs of the presenters
Helped set up the Wikinews accreditation policy, after once designing my own badge
Discussed with the Perseus Project having their Classics students upload page images and approximate OCR of notable primary sources, in Greek, Latin, Arabic, French and English, starting this summer
Technical:

Contributed a few dozen bugs and comments to Bugzilla

Set up a translation structure for the m:Quarto, which had hundreds of translators and was a testing grounds for different templates and techniques
Started a WikiBrowse project to develop a compressed offline reader for use on OLPC laptops. Currently this is being used by 400,000 children and teachers, with English and Spanish snapshots
