[Chicago] Sprint, Imagescape

[Chris McAvoy]

Although I've stated I'm probably not going to be able to make
Saturday, my icy grip still finds its way into this project.

When some people got together at Thoughtworks to work on Selenium,
this is how it went down:

* A time boxed "round table" type session where requirements were
hashed out.  I think it lasted for 15 minutes.  I think a half hour
would be good for this sprint

* The round table items were bullet pointed

* bullet points were grouped into projects

* people volunteered for projects

* everyone split off into their project team, and worked for an hour.

* After the hour, everyone checked back in to present what they'd done.

I would suggest that that's a good way to organize...but I'm sure
those that went to Pycon may have more insight into how to get
something like this organized.
