I'll be at PyCon during the sprints. As promised from the tasks last year, I'd be happy to organize Zope sprinting activity.
Who's coming? Who's interested?
I'll be there all 4 days, focusing on something to do with Zope2/ZTK (but not especially Python 3). Sprint-wise I was thinking of picking out 2-3 powerful, standalone pieces, producing tutorial documentation and a few webpages to hold it, like showcase.zope.org or something.
Any topic suggestions? Elizabeth Leddy and I will be there and were thinking of doing some work on improving the state of utilities for managing and introspecting the ZODB.
Now that would be fun - I've always thought the ZODB was cool tech that was under-appreciated outside of the Zope community. I can think of lots of mgmt tools and a few feature additions. I'm also thinking of running three openspace discussions, inviting input and others to help out: 1. Finding your way around the Zope community (for curious outsiders to hear about the various frameworks we have and how they are related) 2. A tour of the major Zope internal subsystems (highlevel intro to the big pieces) 3. Five cool Zope technologies usable outside of Zope2 (to advertise ZTK eggs to non-Zope folk) -Jeff
