Hello folks,At DC22, a few people seemed interested in a potential Python Team remote sprint, sometime between October and early December.
I'm thus writing to the list to see if there is indeed interest for this. If only 2 people reply, I won't push this further :)
Here are a few potential ideas of things people could work on, in no particular order:
- working on testing and merging the pybuild-autodep8 feature [1] - fixing the ~50 packages that are still using 'python3 setup.py' [2] - reviewing and merging unnoticed salsa MRs on the Team's packages [3] - fixing policy violations [4] - upstreaming CPython patches [5] - trying to remove all remaining Python 2 packages [6] - working on PEP 668 [7] [8] - working on lintian tags for the team [9] - patching tracker.debian.org (Django) to show pending MRs [10] [11]People are of course welcome to work on whatever other things they see fit for the betterment of the Team :)
I've done a remote sprint for the Clojure Team back in May and it went great.
Each people registered and we asked for a food budget, based on the "Meals and Incidentals Rate" the US government publishes for most cities in the world [12] [13]. I encourage you to look up your city, but I know I ended up eating pretty well :)
I would envision a 3 day sprint (Friday, Saturday, Sunday) being long enough yet not too long for most of us to make progress on key issues without being over-tiring.
Happy to hear back from y'all (please do if you're interested). If I see people are interested, I'll send a poll to find the most suitable dates.
