+Post-PyCon PyPy Sprint: February 27th - March 2nd 2006 
+============================================================
+
+The next PyPy sprint is scheduled to take place after PyCon 2006 in
+Dallas, Texas, USA.
+
+We hope to see lots of newcomers at this sprint, so we'll give
+friendly introductions.  The focus of the work will be on ....
+
+
+Goals and topics of the sprint 
+------------------------------
+
+While attendees of the sprint are of course welcome to work on what
+they wish, we offer these ideas:
+
+  - Work on an 'rctypes' module that will let us use a ctypes
+    implementation of an extension module from the compiled pypy-c.
+
+  - Writing ctypes implementations of modules so be used by the above
+    tool.
+
+  - Experimenting with difference garbage collection strategies.
+
+  - Implementation of constraints solvers and integration of dataflow
+    variables to PyPy.
+
+  - Work on the 'py' lib which is heavily used by PyPy.
+
+  - Have fun!
+
+Location
+--------
+
+The sprint will be held wherever the PyCon sprints end up being held,
+which is to say somewhere within the Dallas/Addison Marriott Quorum
+hotel.
+
+For more information see the PyCon 06 sprint pages:
+
+  - http://us.pycon.org/TX2006/Sprinting
+  - http://wiki.python.org/moin/PyCon2006/Sprints
+
+Exact times 
+-----------
+
+The PyPy sprint will from from Monday February 27th until Thursday
+March 2nd 2006. Hours will be from 10:00 until people have had enough.
+
+Network, Food, currency 
+------------------------ 
+
+Currency is the US Dollar.
+
+Food is available ... ?
+
+You normally need a wireless network card to access the network, but
+we can probably accommodate a few people with wired-only connectivity.
+
+Power is 120v through US-style sockets -- Europeans will need to
+remember their adaptors!
+
+Registration, etc.
+------------------ 
+
+If you know before the conference that you definitely want to attend
+our sprint, please subscribe to the `PyPy sprint mailing list`_,
+introduce yourself and post a note that you want to come.  Feel free
+to ask any questions there!
+
+There is a separate `PyCon 06 people`_ page tracking who is
+already thought to come.  If you have commit rights on codespeak then
+you can modify yourself a checkout of
