In November 2011 we worked during a hole day with Abril from AlternativasyCapacidades.org and Juan Manuel from TelarSocial.org, and their teams from Mexico to get the Mexican Spanish translation finished for CiviCRM. We did our best and despite we couldn't reach the goal, we got 90% completed. Not bad! We put together a team of volunteers, some working in our office at Wingu and one remotely from the province of Mendoza in Northwestern Argentina.
Recently we noticed the Make-It-Happen on CiviCRM.org which proposed to integrate CiviCRM with Clickatell and other SMS gateways. I approached dlobo on IRC and asked if he would be interested in seeing the code we had developed that would do some of what the MIH proposed. He asked why we hadn't mentioned it before and my sheepish response was that, even though it worked, it felt like it was a duct tape solution not ready for public consumption.
This month we did a fairly complex migration for a customer of about 90,000 contacts to CiviCRM. I have been using Migrate module to do migrations for a while now but this time for the first time I used version 2 of the migrate module. I put up a how-to-blog on our site just before Christmans but Fen has inspired me to get on with sharing it more widely.
Similar to @annaleevk's story (Tales from a Blackbaud Kintera Conversion) earlier this year I was tasked with migrating a 60K contact Kintera database to CiviCRM. To make matters more "interesting", the client had a home-grown database with mixed information, some defining new contacts and some adding information to the Kintera contacts. I will not talk
This time of year I would normally be entring data from hundreds of sheets of paper, struggling to read people's sloppy handwriting and feeling like I was a slave to our database. But instead, I'm viewing reports on phone calls, pledges and donations, generating reminders and thank-yous -- with no data entry required!
If you think you've found a bug, you need to verify it really is a problem. Answer these questions:

A client of mine at NS Web Solutions is looking to solve a problem involving the way their users need to handle reports. I think this might be common enough to be relevant for others, so here's a bit about what we're planning to do.
Note: This is based on a short forum thread here: http://forum.civicrm.org/index.php/topic,22307.msg93500.html
Saturday morning I brought the McAndrew bros and later Gergö Tiszi to the train station, which ended a great CiviCRM code sprint in Apeldoorn. I think we had quite some progress on CiviMobile, which looks really nice on my Android. I would like to thank Peter, Rajesh, Michael and Willem for their contribution and Hemma for her enthusiasm. We also improved the test set up and did some testing, for which Michael, Gergö, Xavier, Hans and Michael deserve thanks.
