So don't check anything in yourself -- leaving aside whether the contributor
agreement is reasonable, you can't be asked to sign one just to talk about
ZODB.  You and Dieter both have advanced knowledge of ZODB already, and the
less-experienced sprinters generally do the typing anyway (and, by
implication, the committing).  You can come to the sprint and just heckle,
if you like.  OTOH, I expect you (Jeremy) will be in the Python AST-branch
sprint instead regardless -- right?
