hello pypy,

some people already know it.  I am hosting a small sprint 
at the same location as the first PyPy-Sprint, the Trillke-Gut
in Hildesheim (germany) between 12th and 19th of July.  This coding 
week will not focus primarily on pypy but more on the codespeak-infrastructure 
and whatever (python) programming tasks.  Jens-Uwe and me plan among other things 
to enhance the codespeak server configuration and i have some pypy-related 
tasks on my list:

- generate a pypy "documentation overview" which should show which 
  document was updated last and by whom etc.pp.

- implement functional tests for codespeak services
  (subversion/web/mail integration) 

- enhance the wiki, maybe convert it to ReST and use/enhance
  Subwiki from Greg Stein?!

- enhance testing of pypy and have an automatically generated 
  "status" webpage which shows which revision broke which tests 
  under which object space etc.pp.

- look to enhance the tool/test.py and unittest-infrastructure

If you have any suggestions (the smaller the better!) or comments
feel free to reply to this post. 

Everybody will be welcome between 12th and 19th of July.  Actually,
this week will also be interesting because musicians, writers and
other artists will also meet and be productive (kind of trying the
sprint-model in non-computer areas) and on 19th there is a big party.  
So this will probably be unlike the other more coding-intensive sprints. 

Actually, I don't expect many of the former pypy-sprinters because Goethenburg 
and and Louvain-La-Neuve/ EuroPython have been pretty intense and took 
a lot of time from everyone in the last two month.  Of course there is enough 
room so you can probably join even on short-notice.  

And sorry for not posting this earlier but i was/am ill and had
to care for some other stuff first.  If you need more detailed
information about the sprint-location and how to get there contact 
me privately. 

cheers,

    holger
