Introduction

What is a sprint?

A sprint is a focused development session, in which developers pair in a room and focus on building a particular subsystem. A sprint is organized with a coach leading the session. The coach sets the agenda, tracks activities, and keeps the development moving. The developers work in pairs using XP's pair programming approach.

The sprint approach works best when the first few hours are spent getting oriented -- presenting a tutorial for the development material, laying out the stories to tackle for the day, getting everyone a CVS or SVN checkout to work with.

ZopeMag's miniGuide to Zope Sprinting is a good introductory article; just mentally remove every "Zope" from the article to make it generic.

Why sprint at PyCon?

The sprints are intended to benefit various projects, and to encourage more people to take part in development. They will also be a good place to see ExtremeProgramming or other AgileMethods in action, and to work closely with experienced Python developers.

PyCon will always have a core Python sprint. Other topics will come and go each year.

If you wish to participate in a sprint, please contact the sprint organizers in advance! Sprint topics are listed below.

Possible Sprint Topics

JythonSprint? SWTSprint?

Python Core

* rewrite setup.py

* rewrite site.py

  • I'd like to see something like site.addsitedir() made into a public API so that additional directories of .pth files can be processed in a consistent manner without having to re-implement that machinery. -- FredDrake

* handle bugs / patches

Logistics

  • Location: GWU on the third floor of the Marvin Conference Center: http://cafritz.gwu.edu/Directions Rooms: probably 301, 307, and, on Monday and Tuesday, 310. Time: Starting 8 am Saturday Date: Saturday March 19 through Tuesday March 22 inclusive. Cost to attend: Free! Bring: Your laptop and a wireless card (though a wired network infrastructure will also be available). IRC: #pycon on irc.freenode.net
