Hi all, If there are enough interested people, there will be a Twisted sprint at PyCon this year. If you'll be at PyCon and are interested in sprinting on some Twisted topic, give a shout. Also, let us know what specific topics you're interested in so we can let other people know what to expect in the general announcement. Jean-Paul

I plan on going Monday. This will be my first Twisted sprint, so don't hold me to the fire on being super productive. Not sure what I'll work on yet, but I'd like to revive the idea of a "Twisted Game" contest similar to PyWeek -- this was mentioned at PyCon 2008. It would be cool to map out how we could do this if anyone has an interest in this still. -Drew

Who told you that we hold super-productive people to the fire? That sounds backwards! We only put you in the fire if you _aren't_ productive. ;-)

It would be awesome if you could organize that.

From your explanation, it sounds like a Twisted sprint turns into something like the Donner party expedition; I am afraid now. > > Not sure what I'll work on yet, but I'd like to revive the idea of a > "Twisted Game" contest similar to PyWeek -- this was mentioned at PyCon > 2008.
