I think that's a great idea, if we can get enough developers together. By that stage, we should have the new backends in place, and there are plenty of interesting side projects to integrate as well. Will you be there?
Yes, I've signed up for the sprints without a clear agenda and am just finalizing my flights for my ~4 week trip. I might take off slightly early on 16th, as it's my birthday and a bit depressing to spend it all in the basement, but depends who's around and doing what :-). Hopefully I can help out a little bit (eg. never did the PyFITS save function from last year). Or maybe if I get a chance to think about it beforehand I could do something slightly more ambitious this time. I'll at least try to remind myself how git works :-). Cheers, James.
