DCPython Meetup Sprint Plan (Nov 2010)

This is the project planning page for the Python Beginner's Open Source Sprint, organized by the DCPython Meetup (primarily Alex Clark).

There are a lot of people planning to attend, so a little advance planning is worthwhile. If people can figure out what projects they want to work on and use this page to connect with others interested in the same projects, it should be easier to get ourselves organized when we get together.

This is organized with a section for each "larger" project. If you're interested in a project listed here, add your name and any emphasis you'd like to bring to the sprint. If you want to work on a project not listed already, add it!

Beginners

Everyone attending the sprint that has never sprinted before, add your name under "Developers". If you plan to be available to help these folks, add your name and add (helper) afterward.

Developers

  • Alex Clark (helper)
  • Eric Groo
  • Owen Martin
  • Barry Austin
  • Bob Schmertz
  • Mohamed Ainab <MohamedAinab>
  • Eric Palakovich Carr
  • Londell

Tasks

  • Pick a project
  • Get your laptop setup for development
  • Fix bugs!

Python core

The interpreter and standard library.

Developers

Tasks

distutils2 (d2)

The next generation of Python packaging. You'll need Mercurial (hg) for revision control, and several versions of Python. See http://bitbucket.org/fdrake/d2dev/src/tip/README.txt for detailed preparation instructions.

Tasks

  • Remove fancygetopt; move to a clean application of optparse.

System Message: WARNING/2 (<string>, line 85)

Bullet list ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.
  • the command line tool is now in run.py, with new options, and pass it to dist+fancygetopt to call the old system so what could be done is to list:
    1. all command line options in dist.py that are not a call to a command and its options
    2. move them to run.py
    3. remove fancygetopt and clean up dist.
  • Try converting a few projects to use d2, preferably based on the documentation alone.
  • Continue the work on py3 support (ask tarek or regebro on irc)

Zope Toolkit (ZTK)

Django

Look at fixing some long-standing and reasonably trivial documentation issues. Shared exploration of the code base. Help 1.3 get out the door.

Developers

Tasks

Possibly consider whether context objects might benefit from the use of structural modifications.

Pyramid (ne Pylons)

Plone

Python-based, open-source CMS

Developers

Tasks

Parse2Plone

Utility app for importing static website content into Plone

Developers

Tasks

zc.buildout

A tool for creating repeatable environments
